Kistler Sonoma Mountain Chardonnay 2024

$74.99
The latest release of the Sonoma Mountain Chardonnay from Kistler showcases the exceptional character of this storied site. Perched on a hillside bench ideally suited for world-class Chardonnay, the vineyards feature a rare mix of red volcanic and fine-grained chalky soils. Planted with California Heritage clones selected over the past 30 years, these are among the oldest Chardonnay vines in Sonoma County, consistently ripening to Kistler’s precise standards of balance and expression.

The 2024 Chardonnay (Sonoma Valley) is really a single-vineyard wine, all from some of the more generous blocks within McCrea. A wine of dimension and class, it offers up an exciting mix of dried orchard fruit, ash, gravel, incense, dried citrus peel, sage and white pepper. The complexity here is just unreal. If there is a hidden gem in the Kistler lineup, this is it!
