Note di degustazione
Coming across like a Grand Cru from Chablis, the 2012 Chardonnay Stone Flat Vineyard displays loads of wet rocks, a touch of delicate honey, lemon blossom and assorted citrus oil notes. It is medium-bodied, fresh, lively and quite crisp and pure. Drink it over the next 4-5 years as well.

The 2012 Chardonnay Stone Flat Vineyard emerges from a parcel right next to Durell, but the flavors are quite a bit brighter. Lemon oil, white flowers, pears and white pepper are all laced together in a very pretty, understated Chardonnay.
The 2012 Chardonnay Stone Flat Vineyard stands out for its firm backbone, intense minerality and slightly compact personality. Far from an easygoing 2012, the Stone Flat is very much tightly coiled at this stage with intense salinity, expressive yellow-hused stone fruits and a terrific sense of balance.
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.
