Kendall-Jackson Vintner's Reserve Sauvignon Blanc California White Wine

As of August 12, 2026, 20 shoppers have weighed in on this Sauvignon Blanc, settling at 4.55 out of five. Kendall-Jackson describes itself as family grown since 1982, and it locates its Wine Estate & Gardens at 5007 Fulton Road in Santa Rosa, California.

Sauvignon Blanc is a white grape. Official regional guides point to citrus, green herbs, gooseberry and tropical fruit across the category, with cooler vineyards leaning toward green and citrus notes and warmer or riper fruit that can lean more tropical.

In our September 2026 checks, prices ranged from $12.99 to $24.99 across eight stores.

Kendall-Jackson's own product page states the blend precisely: 94 percent Sauvignon Blanc with 4 percent Pinot Blanc and 1 percent Semillon, finished at 13.5 percent alcohol. The producer describes the fruit as certified sustainably grown, drawn from what it calls the best coastal California winegrowing regions, and its own tasting notes list white flowers, Bartlett pear, honeysuckle, apricot, tangerine, guava, white peach, quince and honeycomb, the producer's words for a wine it pairs with fish tacos, sushi and goat cheese.

Our call: choose it when the producer's account carries weight for you; Kendall-Jackson states a family-grown history reaching back to 1982 and backs this bottle with a precise blend, mostly Sauvignon Blanc with a splash of Pinot Blanc and Semillon, and a published 13.5 percent alcohol figure. If shopper reception is your compass, pass on this one; the average so far comes in below the middle of the rated wines we cover, so the producer's history and its published numbers, not the scores, make the case here.
