Kistler
Les Noisetiers Sonoma Coast Chardonnay


Definitely more in a stereotypical CA style, but really well done for that style. Still balance to be found within the butter.

Wonderfully balanced with great finesse - a hint of smoky nuts and melon - a real beauty!

Perhaps this vintage needs another year in the cellar? Citrusy, closer to Sauvignon Blanc, still pleasant, particularly in warm weather. Paired well with chicken.

Dec 20th, 2024One word for this wine is concentration. Medium yellow. It radiates from the dark and fascinating profile of hazelnut and almond skin with enough acidity and oak integration to have none of the downside. I hate the expression but as manly of a chardonnay as it gets
