Kendall Jackson Vintners Reserve, California

Wine: Kendall Jackson Vintners Reserve
Producer: Kendall Jackson
Region: California
Country: USA
Colour: White
Year: 2009
Grape: Chardonnay
Supplier: Red Apron                                                                                
Price (VND): 540.000 VND
Points: 80/100
Pairs well with: chicken casseroles, chicken dishes with strong sauces, and blue cheeses
Notes:
This wine has a powerful dark gold colour, likely a consequence of both age and oaking.

The nose is equally powerful, with honey, ripe peach and sultana scents suggesting sweetness.


However there is not a sweet wine at all, actually a bit on the acid side, the palate is intense, with some oranges, honey and ripe mangoes, well balanced and very long. An ideal match for chicken casseroles, chicken dishes with strong sauces, and blue cheeses.
