Kistler Durell Vineyard Chardonnay 2005 is a white wine from Sonoma Valley, grown on volcanic and gravelly loam soils influenced by coastal breezes from the Petaluma Gap. The vintage delivered even ripening and balanced acidity, yielding fruit of precision and depth. Aromas of lemon oil, white peach and toasted almond are framed by subtle notes of spice and flint. The palate is concentrated yet finely poised, its creamy texture offset by a firm, mineral backbone. Lees ageing contributes subtle richness without excess weight, and the finish is long, taut and finely detailed, reflecting both vineyard character and Kistler’s restrained craftsmanship.
93 Vinous
Green-tinged gold. Drop-dead aromas of spicy lemon, lime, green apple, iodine and white pepper offer striking clarity and energy. Deeply flavored but surprisingly lively, combining power with finesse and showing a array of citrus and exotic fruit flavors. Tangy minerality keeps things in check and adds vivacity to the long, sappy finish. Eventually leaves dusty minerals and refreshingly bitter pear skin in its wake.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2008
