If you've seen, tasted or drank KJ Chardonnay that seems to be on every restaurant menu in America, you should try the Estate Tasting for $20, complimentary if you join the wine club, but worth the price just to taste all the wines. The Estate tasting included 6 premium wines not sold in stores. EXCELLENT samples of at least three premium Chardonnays...along with a comparison taste of the familiar Vinter's reserve...a Pinot Noir, Merlot, a couple of Cabs, and other unique red blends. The Chardonnays and cabs were all excellent. You will see a wide selection of all types of wine that you probably never knew KJ made.

Be prepared that they are trying to get you to join their wine club, but I didn't feel like it was a hard sale. And some of the benefits of the club is you can pick and choose what wines you order and the frequency at deep discounts. e.g. Four bottles 4 times a year, Six 2X a year and pick your wines when you order....all white, all red or a combo and other varietals are also available. So if you like to drink wine....don't miss this tasting!

Awesome chefs, the food was fantastic, the grounds and garden tours are beautiful. Did not want to leave.

I was hesitant going here since my wife and her sister like their Chardonnay. I love em, but they're, um, frugal. So I didn't have much in the way of expectations. Then we arrived. Beautiful estate. After playing their black glass game in the tasting room we were seated for lunch and were treated to a true feast. Every course was excellent, each better than the last, and each paired perfectly with wines ranging from pinot grigio to cab. I slurpped the mushroom sauce remnants from the bowl like a kid slurping fruit loop milk. The steak was beyond delicious. It was divine and paired perfectly with their cabernet sauvignon. I can only dream of being able to prepare a steak like that. After dessert we walked through their garden where the restaurant gets many of their fresh ingredients. It was magical, and I've got a new "go to" gift for my wife and sister-in-law.

Food and wine pairing was very good, and the private dining allowed us to savor the experience, and learn more about wines from our excellent and thougtful server/wine educator.

The best thing about a Kendall-Jackson tasting is that you host pours you wine and then you go visit the extensive gardens. If you are lucky the host will take you to a section of the garden that grows fruits, herbs and spices that match the wine you are tasting. They will take a sample from the garden and let you taste it and try to find the comparable taste in the wine. A really unique and fun tasting experience. Kendall-Jackson makes dozens of wines, from the chardonnay seen in every grocery store to very high end wines only purchased at wine shops and the wineries.
Many of them are offered at their huge and elegant tasting room.
A must see if you are out in the area wine tasting!
