Tasting - Avant
Name: Kendall-Jackson Avant
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: 2009
Price: $10.99
Shop Review: "Vivid, crisp and bright - the brand new Avant Chardonnay continues the nearly three decades of pioneering distinguished varietal wines from California's cool coastal appellations. Avant is very different from KJ's traditional rich, creamy styles of Chardonnay. Avant bursts with intriguing layers of fresh pineapple, bright green apple, crisp Meyer lemon, juicy pear and wildflowers. The wine's refreshing acidity and sleek mineral notes are balanced by a rounded mid-palate and slight oakiness with a long, pure fruit finish."
My Review: A very crisp refreshing taste of citrus fruit and green apple. The nose was quite grassy. Would recommend this wine be consumed in a warm time of the year.
