Bid on this 6-bottle lot of 2016 Kistler "Kistler Vineyard" Sonoma Valley Chardonnay (98JD, 97RP, 96VN). Jeb Dunnuck: "Another borderline perfect Chardonnay from this estate is the 2016 Chardonnay Kistler Vineyard, which tastes almost identical to the Cuvée Cathleen, only slightly less intense. Killer white flower, citrus blossom, orchard fruits, and salty minerality all flow to a medium to full-bodied, ultra-pure, precise, and elegant Chardonnay. With a little less minerality, yet a similar textural richness and depth, give it a year or two, count yourself lucky, and enjoy over the following decade." (06/2018)

Included in this lot · 6 bottles

Provenance: Purchased directly from the winery on release and stored in a professional storage facility by a Bay area based collector. Delivered to K&L via refrigerated transit.

The 2016 Chardonnay Kistler Vineyard opens with complex savory and earthy notes of yeast extract, baking bread, toasted almonds, crushed rocks and sandy soil with a core of warm grapefruit, preserved lemons, kumquats and nectarines plus a waft of oyster shell. Medium to full-bodied, super intense and tight-knit in the mouth, it has tons of earthy/savory layers and a long mineral and steel-laced finish. (LPB)
