Kendall-Jackson Avant Sauvignon Blanc (75cl, 13.5%)

Kendall-Jackson Avant Sauvignon Blanc is a light-bodied California Sauvignon Blanc from Kendall-Jackson Vineyard Estates, bottled at 13.5% ABV in a 750ml format. Fruit is sourced across Lake County and Sonoma County, and the wine is cold fermented in stainless steel tanks using a reductive winemaking approach that shields the juice from oxygen throughout fermentation. The nose opens with lemongrass and fresh-cut lime, then tangerine and passion fruit, with a subtle mineral thread. The palate is crisp with juicy lime and green apple, then tangerine, grapefruit and white pepper. The finish is clean and moderately short, with citrus zest and faint minerality.
