2015 Nickel & Nickel Stiling Vineyard Chardonnay-Making a Simple Meal Great!
On the eye, a light golden straw/hay coloring with medium body. On the nose, floral notes and minerality. On the palate, pear, green apple, citrus and honeydew dance in the mouth. Acidity is managed well with a hint of vanilla and a touch of oak on the finish. This is a refined and perhaps elegant Chardonnay. Stiling Vineyard, located in the Russian River Valley was planted in 1988. The vineyard is famous for the Goldridge sandy loam soils and ten acres are planted in Chardonnay.
Paired with a simple fried chicken and a Yukon Gold potato, this made the meal delightful.
Slainte,
Michael
