Not your average California Chardonnay, that’s for sure! R. Merlo Estate Vineyards takes a different approach than most when it comes to crafting their nicely balanced, beautifully flavored, old-world styled Chardonnay. While many California Chardonnays have a reputation for lots of oak and butter, R. Merlo sticks to an old-world winemaking style to bring out the wine’s natural, vibrant fruit flavors and makes a Chardonnay that is absolutely unique. The R. Merlo 2009 Chardonnay nicely reflects the refined, old-world style as well as the Merlo family’s heritage with winemaking roots that date back hundreds of years. A Gold Medal Special Selection, this Chardonnay shows gentle aromas of light vanilla cream, fresh pineapples, and perfumed citrus blossom. On the palate, the wine has a viscous mouthfeel with flavors of Graverstein apple cobbler, hints of honey, and a background of creamy lemon custard pie, bits of dried vanilla bean and subtle oak. This wine pairs deliciously with Caribbean coconut curry, lobster and scallops, and even creamy soft polenta! Aged 12 months in oak. 100% Chardonnay.
