Kendall-Jackson ‘Vintners Reserve’ Pinot Noir 2021, California

Description

Barrel aged in French oak for 8 months, this Pinot Noir has expressive hints of toast, vanilla, and cedar aromas. Founded in 1982, the Kendall-Jackson story is one of family, quality and stewardship. Eight years after planting the first grapes on his Lake County property, founder, Jess Jackson, and his family set out to make a premium, yet affordable, California wine. Grapes are grown in cool coastal vineyards resulting in small, densely-flavoured fruit which creates well-structured wines. The wines are kept separate until the final blend so that the winemakers have freedom to craft a wine that exhibits the perfect blend of flavours and aromas from each region. This dark garnet wine delivers bright cherry, strawberry and raspberry aromas with cola and mild spice accents. Pair with fillet mignon, a stacked burger or cheeseboard.
