Kendall-Jackson Sauvignon Blanc Vintner's Reserve 2006
California, United StatesWinemaster Randy Ullom continues to shape the VR sauvignon into a more food- friendly, fresh style sauvignon and the '06 is the best yet. Now 99 per cent sauvignon the aromatics are bright and lifted with a cool, super clean nose of citrus, lime rind and tropical fruit aromas. On the palate, the flavours vacillate between tropical and cool nectarine skin. The fruit is predominately Lake County (82%) with bits of fruit from San Luis Obispo (7), Sonoma (7) and Mendocino (3). Revamped and ready to go.Tasted: 02 December 2007Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $19.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
