Jackson Estate

Monterey Riesling

The Kendall Jackson Jackson Estate Riesling from Monterey is a captivating white wine that showcases the elegance and charm of this varietal. Monterey's cool coastal climate imparts a refreshing, bright acidity that beautifully balances the lush fruit intensity of the wine. On the palate, you'll find vibrant notes of ripe peach, apricot, and a hint of zesty citrus, all wrapped in a delicate floral aroma. The wine's medium body provides a pleasant mouthfeel without overwhelming, making it an ideal companion for a variety of dishes, from spicy Asian cuisine to fresh seafood. Its harmonious profile is a testament to Monterey's superb winegrowing conditions, and it’s no surprise that wines from this region frequently receive accolades for their exceptional quality. Enjoy this Riesling's versatility, whether you're seeking a food-friendly wine for dinner or a delightful sip on its own.

Central Coast

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
