+--- Thread: Can't find this Chardonnay...please help (/thread-19657.html)

A corporate club in Orlando offers a pricey Chardonnay called "Catherine's
Vineyard" with gold embossed label.
It's NOT Katherine's, as in the popular Cambria,but is spelled with a "C."
The waiter told us they only have a limited quantity and it's extremely hard to find. Story is that "Catherine" is an elderly woman
with very small vineyard in CA, and when grapes are being harvested, she
hires a full orchestra to serenade them.
Have you ever heard of this wine? If so, know where to order it?
Was priced on the menu at $85/bottle, but club is a member's only business/social club, so I know it was marked up considerably. Trying to locate this
wine.
Thanks.

You may be referring to Kistler Chardonnay curvee Catherine. Kistler is a top producer of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Check with them as the label you described sounds like Kistler and their wines can be pricey.

Now I know why Napa wines are getting so expensive.
