Our Chardonnay Apple Pie Ice Cream Sundaes combine the essence of VML’s Persinger Chardonnay with the warmth of homemade apple pie filling. By simmering Gravenstein apples in a blend of Chardonnay, brown sugar, and spices, the filling takes on a rich, sweet, and aromatic flavor that pairs perfectly with creamy vanilla ice cream.
Apple Pie Filling
Ingredients:
- 6 whole Gravenstein Apples peeled, cored, and cut into small thin cubes

- 1/2 cup Granulated White Sugar
- 1/3 cup Cornstarch
- 5 teaspoons Cinnamon

- 1 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Vanilla Extract

Create the Filling: 1. In a large saucepan, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg until blended. Add in water and Chardonnay and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. 2. Add in vanilla and honey to mixture. Gently stir in until combined. 3. Carefully add the apples to the boiling sauce mixture and reduce heat to medium-low.
