Pale lemon color with simple stone and tropical fruit aromas and floral notes, stainless, no oak. Pineapple and apple fruits on the palate, lemon zest, crisp, this ‘16 was a touch creamy, medium finish ending with fruit notes and mineral spice. Tasting Sample.

Citrus/lime with green apple. I'll be saving the remainder for cooking.

Real bite on the finish in an unpleasant way. Received good rating from WE but not for me.

1 more for Super Bowl Sunday- clear, golden straw color, aromas of lemon, lime and Granny Smith apple. Crisp flavors of citrus and tart green apple. Love unoaked Chardonnay.

I love Kendall-Jackson. Not bad for a summer white wine.

I like it better than the VR chard. Crisp and fruit forward but still smooth and rounded. Pineapple, green apple, and pears with a modest acidity and a solid finish.
