The exceptionally complex 2006 Chardonnay Seco Highland Estates is a brilliant Chardonnay from Monterey. This is a more limited production cuvee of 560 cases, but the price is certainly fabulous for a Chardonnay of this quality. It has that nice greenish hue to the straw color, a gorgeous nose of orange blossoms intermixed with brioche, leesy waxiness, and some superb tropical fruit, with beautiful acidity and minerality. This is a stunner that could easily pass for a great French grand cru in a blind tasting. Despite the size of some of the cuvees produced at Kendall-Jackson (2.3 million bottles of the Vintner’s Reserve Chardonnay and 300,000 bottles of Sauvignon Blanc), winemaker Randy Ullom is at the top of his game, and of course is given carte blanche authority by the two principals, Barbara Banke and her husband Jess Jackson. There are some terrific values in this portfolio.Tel. (800) 769-3649; Fax (800) 600-5985
