Note di degustazione
The 2016 Chardonnay Trenton Roadhouse is another super-expressive wine in this range. The Trenton Roadhouse has more of a dried fruit, savory and hazelnut-leaning profile to match its soft, silky personality. Generous and nuanced, with lovely floral top notes, the Trenton Roadhouse is all class.

Coming from pure sand soils, the ripe, flamboyantly-styled 2016 Chardonnay Trenton Roadhouse gives up stunning notes of tangerine oil, caramelized citrus, and white flowers, with a hint of tropical fruit with time in the glass. This medium to full-bodied, fleshy, ripe beauty has moderate acidity and plenty of richness and depth, all while staying balanced and fresh. There’s been a distinct style change at Kistler, with winemaker Jason Kesner purposely pulling back on the harvest dates and making a classic, age-worthy style of both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. He’s done this without sacrificing depth, concentration, or richness, and these latest 2016s are truly brilliant wines.
The 2016 Chardonnay Trenton Roadhouse Vineyard rocks up with effortless notions of pear tart, warm apple pie and lemon curd plus touches of spice cake, croissant, almond butter and lime cordial. Full-bodied, rich and wonderfully harmonious, it delivers incredibly intense stone fruit and spice layers with a very long savory finish.
Informazioni sul produttore
Kistler’s Chardonnays are some of the world’s most sought-after. This cult Californian producer crafts small volumes of exceptional, rich and generous, yet mineral and precise wines. With almost the entire production sold directly to their mailing list, the wines are also incredibly hard to find.
