2011 William Hill Estate Chardonnay; Central Coast, California

The Central Coast of California has a nice cool climate ideally suited for Chardonnay. The substantial plantings of the 1970’s have turned into mature vineyards yielding outstanding fruit and the best part is there are lots of acres helping to keep a lid on prices! Here is a wine that is all about the essence of Chardonnay, from first sip to final aftertaste. You get that crisp, dry, citrus, pineapple and orchard fruit up front, with hints of white peach, as well as delicate notes of vanilla and hazelnut spiciness. This wine has a creamy mouth-feel, and a palate that is clearly built to accompany food, in exactly the manner in which good wine invites a meal. It will match easily with chicken, veal, pork, turkey, or seafood

 $12.99 per bottle or $132.50/case ($11.04)
