The 2015 Chardonnay Kistler Vineyard is boldly scented of warm apricots, apple crumble, fresh pineapple and pear tart with touches of butterscotch, cashews and candied ginger. Medium to full-bodied, the palate possesses incredible poise, featuring super intense spiced apples and savory layers with a beautiful creamy texture and a very long, seamless finish. So. Good.

The 2015 Chardonnay Kistler Vineyard is stellar. In this range, the Kistler Vineyard Chardonnay is distinguished by its bright aromatics, lift and nuance, all of which confer a great deal of freshness. This hillside site, with its myriad exposures, volcanic ash soils and a mix of Wente and Mount Eden clone Chardonnay on St. George rootstock yields Chardonnays of unparallelled class and distinction. This is a dazzling wine from Kistler.
