($13): Kendall Jackson has a seemingly never-ending ability to blend wines from throughout California to achieve excellent value offerings.  Comprised of almost equal parts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot–with a touch of Cabernet Franc thrown in–this bottling has sweet fruit balanced by mild tannins and just enough complexity to keep it interesting.  It’s an easy wine to recommend. 87 Michael Apstein Oct 30, 2007
