More about this product
Kendall-Jackson
The wine with which Kendall-Jackson makes a breakthrough on the market is Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay, which for more than 25 years now has been the number one Chardonnay in the United States. The grapes come from vineyards all over California. Very attractive to the American palate, because of its sweetness, it attracts Americans to the world of wine. Today, Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay is more serious, drier and 100% Chardonnay. Kendall-Jackson has over 5,000 acres of vines in various wineries on the mountains and hills off the cool coast of California. Growing vines in high places is a challenge for both the vine grower and the vines, but the grapes that come from these places have a richer and more intense character and flavors. Each winery in the family portfolio is managed independently, with its own philosophy.

California
California is the largest and most important wine region in the USA, stretching over an impressive ten degrees of latitude, which inevitably offers a variety of climatic and microclimatic conditions, and with the addition of diverse relief - mountains, valleys, plains, and plateaus, it becomes clear that there is indeed an astonishing selection of terroirs here; the state's winemaking history dates back to the 18th century when settlers and missionaries made their way to the western coast, however, California wines gained worldwide fame only in the last few decades - especially after the Paris Judgment of 1976, when in a blind tasting, California representatives won unconditionally against the French in both white and red wines; today, California hosts some of the largest wine companies in the world, as well as some boutique wineries with cult and expensive wines, sought after by connoisseurs and collectors; the main varieties grown in California are Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, but recently wines from Pinot Noir, Merlot, and Syrah have also been successfully established; perhaps the most distinctive and terroir-expressive variety in California (and in the USA as a whole) is Zinfandel (Primitivo in Italy), which has found excellent conditions for development here; the cooler and northern regions, closer to the Atlantic coast (Sonoma), are more suitable for cooling Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, while further inland - Napa - is home to the most famous red wines in California based on Cabernet Sauvignon.

Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir is the dominant red wine grape of Burgundy, a challenge for every single vine grower and wine producer. It can be found in Germany (as Spätburgunder), Italy (Pino Nero), Chile, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and the USA. The wines show a specific aroma of red berries and cherry depending on the vinification method employed - from fresh red cherries in lighter wines to stewed black cherries in weightier examples, many of them also showing hints of earthy flavours.
