Last week McKinsey and Stephanie hosted the Supper Club girls for a chardonnay tasting. I am not normally a chardonnay drinker, but I was excited to see if the tasting would change my mind! I was certain Rombauer was going to be my favorite…
The Wines
- Kirkland ($7) — Costco brand
- Kendall Jackson ($11)
- La Crema ($12)
- Gallivant ($20)
- Rombauer ($35)
- Butter ($16)
*prices may vary depending on where you purchase
Each girl brought a dish to share but McKinsey and Stephanie served Chick-fil-A nuggets, a gorgeous cheese & charcuterie spread and surprised me and Laura with a birthday cake for dessert.
The wines were pre-poured for us so we could experience the tasting blindly. We ranked our choices from favorite to least favorite and then McKinsey tallied up the points for each wine to see how they stacked up. Here were the results:
- Kendall Jackson (18 points)
- Gallivant (18 points)
- Kirkland (17 points)
- La Crema (12 points)
- Rombauer (14 points)
- Butter (11 points)
Surprised?! We all were! And now I just may be a Kendall Jackson chardonnay drinker from time to time…my dress

Such a fun idea! I'm not a chardonnay fan but would love to blindly try them and see what I think.
