Jackson Estate Seco Highlands

2014 Arroyo Seco Chardonnay

The Kendall Jackson Jackson Estate Seco Highlands Chardonnay from the 2014 vintage is a vibrant and expressive white wine originating from the esteemed Arroyo Seco region. This Chardonnay showcases a medium body complemented by bright acidity, offering a refreshing and lively mouthfeel. The fruit intensity is prominent, brimming with delightful notes of crisp green apple, luscious pear, and subtle hints of tropical fruits, all perfectly balanced. The oak influence adds layers of complexity with gentle toasty nuances and a touch of vanilla, enhancing the overall profile. This wine is delightful and approachable, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of pairings, particularly seafood dishes or creamy pasta.

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.
