California Wine Tasting Notes

Kendall-Jackson Vintners Reserve California Sauvignon Blanc Score: 88.0 "Intensely fruity, very reminiscent of a good Viognier-peach, apricot, lime; tart, yet silky texture and a rich mouthfeel. Atypical, but very flavorful. Try it with chow mein, shrimp with wild rice, or tandoori chicken." 1998 Hawk Crest (second label of Stags Leap Wine Cellars) California Chardonnay Score: 87.0 "Elegant ripe melon and apple with round oaky undertones, vanilla, fine balance and a tart citrusy finish. Pasta with cream sauce and fish would be the natural accompaniment." 1998 Fetzer Vineyards California Gewurztraminer Score: 87.0 "Fresh sweet lychee and peach flavors, tart and spritzy, with a clean finish. Always consistent and always a good value. Best as an aperitif or with Asian cuisine."
