Kendall-Jackson Stature Chardonnay 2001
Santa Maria Valley, Santa Barbara County, Central Coast, California, United StatesMade entirely from a single block on the Santa Maria Bench. Look for a huge floral, pineapple, mango/citrus nose with honey and peach aromas and a spicy, creamy vanilla note. Rich, round and oily like most big chardonnays yet it is still elegant thanks to a mineral / citrus baked apple undercurrent. The flavours are peach, mango, honey, creamy spicy lees with a floral, creamsicle undercurrent. Long, intense and balanced with good acidity and a creamy, citrus apple finish. Great stuff.Tasted: 08 April 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $99.99 | 750ml | Special Order - Rennaissance Wine Merchants |
