Kistler Durell Vineyard Chardonnay 2006 is a white wine from Sonoma Valley, sourced from low-yielding vines rooted in volcanic and gravelly loam soils. The season’s moderate warmth and long ripening period produced fruit of intensity and balance. Aromas of Meyer lemon, pear and hazelnut are complemented by notes of brioche, smoke and crushed stone. The palate is full and layered, its rich texture supported by firm acidity and a subtle saline edge. Oak influence is integrated, lending gentle spice and structure. The finish is persistent and precise, showing the vineyard’s depth and coastal freshness.

Green-gold. Finely etched citrus and green apple aromas are impressively pure and incisive. Brisk lemongrass and lime flavors are complicated by dusty minerals and bitter pear skin. The most backward of this set right now, and a bit tough to assess. The finish repeats the citrus and mineral notes and lingers impressively. No way I'd touch this one any time soon.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2009
