✨ Technical Specifications
Kendall-Jackson's Avant Sauvignon Blanc represents a modern, fresh expression of California's coastal terroirs. Conceived to highlight the vibrant, pure fruit characteristics of the grape, the Avant line focuses on minimal oak influence and crisp acidity. Fermented primarily in stainless steel to preserve its bright, expressive nature, this wine showcases the cool-climate influence of California's marine-influenced vineyards. It reflects the Jackson family's ongoing dedication to sustainable coastal farming, offering a contemporary, approachable style that contrasts with more traditional, heavily-oaked California whites.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1982 by visionary entrepreneur Jess Jackson, Kendall-Jackson emerged as a cornerstone of modern American winemaking with the debut of its iconic 1982 Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay. Headquartered in Santa Rosa within Sonoma County, the family-owned estate champions cool-climate, coastal vineyard sites across California's premier winegrowing regions. Guided by an uncompromising dedication to sustainable farming, artisanal small-batch fermentation, and tailored French and American oak aging, the winery captures rich complexity and approachable elegance. Beyond its world-famous Chardonnay, Kendall-Jackson produces highly acclaimed Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, and terroir-expressive Grand Reserve collections that highlight the diversity of California's coastal terroir.
