2002 Vintner's Reserve Sauvignon Blanc
Beppi Crosariol, The Globe and Mail, CAN Recommended

This medium-bodied white deftly walks the middle ground between the herbaceous sauvignons of France and New Zealand and the rounder, oak-aged examples associated with California. Medium-bodied and lush, it serves up mounds of melon-and-pear-like fruit, with hints of fig, red apple and pineapple. The texture is soft, yet it finishes with good acidity to balance out the sweet fruit. This is a versatile sauvignon for sipping without food or throughout a meal centered around fish or chicken.

2002 Vintner's Reserve Sauvignon Blanc
Sandra Silfven, The Detroit News, MI Recommended

This has such cool-climate zing (and yes, that's even possible in California) it blasts the nose with intense aromas of lime, melon and kiwi, and then drills the palate with ripe, sweet fruit, offset by edgy acidity. It's sure to up your standing with any wine snob in the crowd.

dry, medium-bodied, no oak, high acidity. A fruit salad of flavors, from tart pineapple to sweet melon and fresh pear, makes a fine supper sipper, especially at the price.

2001 Vintner's Reserve Sauvignon Blanc
Editor, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine Recommended

If far from being the deeper and more involving Sauvignons Blancs of this issue, this friendly, balanced, clean-as-can-be wine delivers lots of direct, citrus- and ripe-melon fruitiness for the money. and it becomes an especially noteworthy buy when found at a typically discounted price.

Ripe melony and fig flavors, but with good cleansing acidity. Perfect aperitif or summer food wine.

Simple, varietal flavors dominate this pleasant, quaffable alternative to chardonnay. It is blended with semillon, viognier, pinot blanc and malvasia to give it broad dimension.

Smoky and caramelized, this has a burn to its alcohol, yet there's also a friskiness...

2000 Vintner's Reserve Sauvignon Blanc
Editor, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine

While hardly one to impress with complexity or any sense of depth, this direct, vaguely juicy, slightly sweet wine is the very picture of picnic quaffability. And at discount, it fills the bill for warm weather gulping.

2010 Vintner's Reserve Summation White Wine Blend
Tom Marquardt and Patrick Darr, Capital Gazette, MD Recommended.

This is a white blend of 10 grape varieties - nearly half is a combination of chardonnay and sauvignon blanc. It defies description as a result of that, but expect to find a melange of flavors. Melon, peach, grapefruit are among the flavors.

2009 Vintner's Reserve Summation White Wine Blend

We enjoyed this luxurious blend of eight white grapes. You're not sure what you are drinking, but you know you like it. Citrus and tropical fruit notes.

2009 Vintner's Reserve Summation White Wine Blend
Michael Dresser, The Baltimore Sun, MD Wine Find: 2009 Kendall-Jackson Summation

This well-balanced white wine is an imaginative blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Chardonnay, Semillon, Roussanne, Pinot Blanc, Riesling and Muscat Canelli drawn from vineyards around California. It comes to the palate as a very fruity wine, but leaves with a dry impression. It offers vibrant flavors of grapefruit, lime, pear, kiwi, honey and white pepper. It's immediately appealing, but with some complexity too.

Laurie Daniel, San Jose Mercury News, CA Highly Recommended

Kendall-Jackson's 2008 Vintner's Reserve Summation is a blend of 10 white grapes (sauvignon blanc, at 31 percent, is the main variety) from up and down the coast. It's quite racy, with citrus and stone fruit notes, a slight creamy note and persistent acidity.

A dry wine with a tiny hint of sweetness; aromas and flavors of grapefruit, peaches and golden apples.

1999 Great Estates Chardonnay Arroyo Seco
Dennis Schaefer, Santa Barbara News-Press, CA

...aromas of peach, floral and musk seem almost viognier-like. Two exotic chard clones, Dijon and Rued, combine here to make the flavors bright and sunny, but also a bit spicy like muscat. It's sunshine in bottle merged with barrel fermentation and lees stirring that make this wine fascinating. Extremely distinct and very pleasant with a clean finish, the wine is like no other chard I've tasted.

1999 Grand Reserve Chardonnay
Stephen Tanzer, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Subdued nose of pear, citrus skin and vanillin oak. Juicy and brisk, with good texture and intensity and a nicely restrained sweetness for this bottling. Firm acids frame the flavors. Finishes with decent length and a slight alcoholic harshness.
