Note di degustazione
After opening the bottle of 2022 Chardonnay Kistler Vineyard, it transforms dramatically over several days to reveal a particularly powerful, expressive iteration of this site. Iodine, candle smoke and matchstick define the nose before slowly segueing to quince paste, elderflower and spring honey. Unlike its reticence on the nose, the palate explodes with concentrated, layered flavors. Its satiny texture gently coats the mouth, while its generosity and textural breadth are foiled by fireworks of fresh acidity that call you back for another delicious sip.

Coming from higher elevations in the Mayacamas, close to the county line, the 2022 Chardonnay Kistler Vineyard is a distinctive wine with notes of orange peel, spiced, and golden melon rind. Medium to full-bodied, it offers a supple texture and a rounded feel, with notes of almond (almost marzipan, but not heavy), It has the tannin structure to make this an age-worthy wine over the next 10 years. 11,375 bottles were produced.
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.
