December, 2011 - The 2009 Grand Reserve from Kendall-Jackson displays aromas of apple, floral, honey, butter, caramel and maybe even some orange peel notes coming through as well. On the palate this is pretty full with a creamy texture and nice acidity giving it structure and balance. This is a nice effort from Kendall-Jackson and a value for California Chardonnay which should be easily available. (Drink 2011-2014) - JD
