Description:
The winery was purchased in 1964 by Peter Newton who took the 50 acres of grapevines, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and added Chardonnay and Merlot unproven varietals at the time. This move was highly successful and today the Sterling Vineyards stretches across 1200 acres of prime Napa Valley vineyards. Dominated by Merlot this wine also has a little Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot. The grapes were fermented separately in temperature-controlled stainless steel with selected yeast strains. Malolactic fermentation followed in upright Oak tanks, after which the wines were aged for an average of 12 months in a combination of French and American oak barrels. Finally, the wine was lightly fined with eggwhites prior to bottling. A deep purple almost red ruby coloured wine, the nose shows a dense, ripe, full concentration of blackberry jam. Hints of vanilla bean, cinnamon, nutmeg and cedar complement the bright, ripe, lusciously grapey flavours and long full rich finish. (12 x 75 cl)

SterlingVineyard NORTH COAST Chardonnay California
Description: The winery was purchased in 1964 by Peter Newton who took the 50 acres of grapevines, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and added Chardonnay and Merlot unproven varietals at the time. This move was highly successful and today the SterlingVineyards stretches across 1200 acres of prime Napa Valley vineyards. This 100% Chardonnay underwent cool fermentation that allows for the retention of bright fruit aromas. Additionally the wine was aged in the barrel with periodic lees stirring to help round out the mid-palate of the young wines, while integrating the toasty oak flavours. This also softened the acidity while adding a delightful buttery nuance to the wine. After racking and blending, the wine was bottled and released. Brilliant medium straw in colour, the luscious aromas of fresh Golden Delicious apple, orange blossom and lemon zest dominate although there are hints of vanilla and cloves. Bold flavours of pear and Golden Delicious apple with hints of pineapple, baking spices and vanilla are evident before giving way to a creamy mouthfeel leading to a supple, tropical finish..
