Kendall Jackson Chardonnay 1

I'm not trying to be critical of anyone's particular taste, but Kendall-Jackson Chardonnay is an insult to real chardonnay. I work in the industry and I can tell you that the large majority of those in the business don't like this wine. It is designed for the masses to be a crowd pleaser by blending the chardonnay with a small amount of muscato to give it that slightly sweet appealing taste. Even though the lable on the back says 100% chardonnay, don't believe it. It's not illegal for them to say so, so they get away with it. Try some better quality chardonnay's in the same price range such as Benziger, Little Black Dress, Bogle, Hahn Estates or Hahn's lower tier label Cycles Gladiator. These wines are all of quite good quality for the price.

Note the people who like it! California vintners, in order to capture the "Pepsi Generation" and beer drinkers, make their wines sweet and fruity. It's called "fruit-forward American style" wine. Yuk!
