A single-vineyard Burgundian-style Chardonnay with great acidity for food. Fresh and silky with ripe apple, pear, nutty and toasty oak spice. Very Tasty! Pair with roast chicken. Founded in 1978, Kistler has become one of California's leading producers of single-vineyard wines.

Chardonnay food pairings: panko-crusted grilled chicken, salmon steaks, basil pesto, prawn bisque, cheese fondue.

Reviews and Ratings

Kistler 2018 Chardonnay is a rich and plushy, unfined and unfiltered, Burgundian-style Chardonnay from Sonoma County, California. Kistler has been making Chardonnay in Sonoma since 1978, The grapes for this wine were sourced from the Mayacamas Range to the west as well as Sonoma Mountain. Look for a mid-weight, dry, fresh and lively elegant Chardonnay with ripe apple, pear, lemon curd and a long, toasty finish. Pair with roast chicken and turkey tornadoes. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
