The 2020 Chardonnay Vintner’s Reserve is a mosaic of classic expressions, with toasted brioche, lemon candy, vanilla bean, and baking spice. The palate is full of ripe baked pineapple turnover cake, sweet pear, and vanilla. Classic for a reason, drink now or over the next 6 years. (Jeb Dunnuck)

Where It's From

Region / California

View more wines from California

When it comes to US wine production, California is King. California wines account for almost 90% of all wines produced in the United States each year, and is home to the most celebrated vineyards and producers in the country. California is probably best known for its world-famous Cabernets and Chardonnays, many of which hail from its two most-acclaimed AVAs, Napa Valley and Sonoma County. Other prominent grapes used in California wines include Merlot, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, and Zinfandel (which California made popular).

Country / United States

View more wines from United States

The United States now ranks fourth in the world in wine production behind, France, Italy, and Spain. While about 90% of that wine is produced in California, other states like Oregon, New York, and Washington are establishing themselves as prime spots for wine production, as well. Just about any variety of wine can be found in production somewhere in the United States.

Nectarine, brisk lime and honeysuckle aromas show on the nose of this bottling. There’s a lively citrus kick to the tip of the sip, and then come richer waves of pear, peach and browned butter. (Matt Kettmann)
