Kendall-Jackson Chardonnay Vintner's Reserve 2014
California, United StatesKJ’s signature label is all about land. They own every vineyard that goes into this two million-plus case brand and it's all cool, and coastal, chardonnay that chief winemaker Randy Ullom gets to work with. Here he mixes Monterey County citrus and lime flavours with the mango and pineapple flavours of the Santa Barbara County, the green apple notes of Mendocino County and Sonoma County’s ripe pears. The wine is fermented and aged in French and American oak barrels and aged sur lie. Soft round and fresh, it is fully ready to drink. Try with a chicken salad or a favourite creamy pasta dish.Tasted: 30 March 2016Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:AB | $23.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
