Tasting Notes:

2008 Kirkland Signature Sonoma County Chardonnay is sleek with vibrant ripe honeysuckle, spicy pear notes, and concentrated opulent tropical pineapple fruit notes. The body of this Chardonnay builds in intensity with a consistent thread of crisp vibrant acidity and a rich creamy complex edge from oak as ripe apple flavors expand on the textured finish. Sonoma has long cool growing seasons with consistent sun to build complex flavors. Drink now through 2011.

The vineyards for this Kirkland Signature wine were chosen from a variety of sub appellations, Russian River for cool high acid citrus lemon flavored grapes, Dry Creek developing the rich creamy tropical fruit character from a warm climate, and Alexander Valley with notes of Bartlett pear, ripe apple and fig.
