Vintner's Reserve Jackson Estate California Chardonnay
Residual sugar and high acid - I get why like this stuff.

Feb 24th, 2013I don't normally drink Chardonnay but when I do, I drink Kendall Jackson Chardonnay.
Seriously though, I was surprised that I actually found a Chardonnay that I enjoyed. It's got more of an oak or woody feel to it than other whites I usually drink. Not too dry or anything, drank really nicely!

Many flavors! Dry, with apple tang but not too sweet, nor too bright. New flavors long after.

Jan 10th, 2022My second outing with this wine and it was even better than I remembered. It has wonderful sweet flavors like pineapple and banana, which some other reviewer‘s have mentioned. It has a very smooth finish. I brought it to dinner expecting to have chicken kebabs. I wound up having steak, but it was still enjoyable. It took about 15 to 20 minutes in the glass to really open up and then it really came into its own. This is an excellent value in a Chardonnay I have hardly had a better one.
