One of my most memorable wine experiences was with a Frank Family cabernet sauvignon – it kept on expanding my senses and getting inside to discover different layers opening up. From the first glass to the next little bit the next day, one surprise after another – my AHA moment – that’s what people get so excited about with a very special wine. AMAZING!

The top image is of an always dependable and quite beautiful chardonnay- when I traveled outside of California, I could always count on a KJ chardonnay to be a decent wine. Big and buttery for my taste
The photomicrograph at the top of the page is of Kendall-Jackson Vintners Reserve 1983 at one year old.
