Club Reserve

2009 Lodi Chardonnay

The Jekyll Island Club Reserve Chardonnay from the 2009 vintage showcases the exceptional terroir of Lodi, known for its warm days and cool nights that contribute to the grape's vibrant character. This white wine presents a full-bodied profile, delivering a delightful complexity that harmonizes perfectly with its refreshing acidity. The fruit intensity is prominent, offering lush notes of ripe pear, crisp apple, and subtle citrus undertones that tantalize the palate. Tannins are not a defining feature, allowing the wine's smooth texture to shine through. It has a bone-dry finish that leaves a lasting impression, making it a fantastic choice for pairing with a variety of dishes or enjoying on its own.

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.
