Cupcake Chardonnay, 2005
Central Coast, California
From the back label:
Our vineyard works hard to bring you the biggest, richest Chardonnay from California's desirable Central Coast, where the sun-drenched grapes create full and elegantly-textured wines. Decadent layers of butter cream, bright citrus and vanilla melt into a balance of oak and subtle spice. In other words: Sinful. Serve chilled with crab cakes, seared Ahi tuna on waffle crackers or fresh-baked French bread and cheese.
Cupcake: Permission to enjoy dessert first.
~Adam Richardson, winemaker
Smell/Appearance: sweet & fruity; clear and slightly bubbly
Taste: actually very much like the bottle states! Surprise, surprise. But it was sweet, fruity, smooth, creamy. Not like eating a REAL cupcake though, of course- but a good fresh wine for a hot day.
Price: $9.99 at World Market- but too bad it isn't a brand that they carry on a regular basis. I've only seen them with it once- and it was an advertised special. If I want to buy it again one day -it might not be easy to find!
I couldn't locate any web site for them, either- so no online shopping.
