Don’t Spill This Wine: Summation

By smokey

Kendall-Jackson has recently released the premiere vintage of Summation, and this blend of ten varietals and the interpretation of Winemaster Randy Ullom have resulted in a white wine that delivers at every level. Expect the same high quality that has been synonymous with KJ, but the rich layers of flavor and the delicate balance of this blend is only part of the reason we’ll add this to our holiday shopping list. It’s perfect with meals and just for sipping and drinking…but in the end, and in Summation it may be a question of price and versatility that makes this wine so approachable.
