Chardonnay Stone Flat Vineyard Parmelee Hill 2017 - Kistler Vineyards

Tasting notes

""The Stone Flat Chardonnay is planted on the same soil as Durell—they are separated by a few feet—and picked at the same time," says winemaker Jason Kesner. "They're fermented in the same room and with the same barrel program, so the only difference between these two wines is the rootstock." The 2017 Chardonnay Stone Flat Vineyard has an uber-inviting nose with scents of honeycomb, peach cobbler, toasted hazelnut, quince, guava and a classy framing of baking spice with underlying mineral notions. It's medium-bodied with intense, savory-laced ripe fruits knit by rocky notions and tangy acidity, finishing long and layered."

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

There may be no other California producer whose Chardonnays might be mistaken for white Burgundies. Kistler Vineyards was created in 1978, by Steve Kistler. He continues to oversee the vineyards, while Mark Bixler runs the business side of the winery. They produce a multiple single-vineyard Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs from vineyards from the Sonoma Coast, the Sonoma Mountains as well as Carneros. All Chardonnay vineyards are planted with the same clone enabling the vineyards individuality to surface and sculpt the wine. While not all of their whites are consistently tense, mineral-driven wines like many white Burgundies are, there is still lovely delineation, refinement and poise that is thoroughly reminiscent of old world class and charm.
