Calina Reserva Chardonnay 2009, Casablanca, Limarí Valleys, Chile: Vintages Wine Panel: Calina is owned by California’s Kendall-Jackson. Light gold in colour, this Chardonnay offers creamy tropical fruit, ripe peach, banana, caramel apple, oak and fig aromas and flavours with nice intensity. A toasty, medium-full-bodied Chard with nicely balanced acidity and a long finish. A true pleasure. My note: Lovely, juicy Chardonnay with bright peach and pear notes and some green apple. Just enough butter and vanilla smoke from the oak. Drink: 2011-2015. 640912 13.50% XD 750 mL  $15.95 Score: 89/100. February 5, 2011 Full Review
