Kistler Stone Flat Vineyard Chardonnay 2017 showcases the intricacies of its terroir, cultivated on the same soil as Durell Vineyard, merely feet apart. Fermented in identical conditions, the only distinction lies in the rootstock. The nose presents notes of honeycomb, burnt citrus and subtle floral hints, fused with an underpinning of flint. The palate displays a medium body, featuring ripe fruit flavours mirrored by mineral undertones and a firm acidity. This Chardonnay illustrates Kistler`s commitment to expressing vineyard-specific characteristics.

The 2017 Chardonnay Stone Flat Vineyard emerges from parcels that are now technically in Durell and that are just across the road from the historic core of that site. Interestingly, the two Chardonnays are incredibly different. The Stone Flat Chardonnay is a decidedly richer and more powerful wine. Tangerine, hazelnut, dried flowers, mint and lightly honeyed notes give the Stone Flat a viscous, textured feel that is quite distinctive. Exotic and arresting in its beauty, the Stone Flat is compelling in 2017.Antonio Galloni1st May 2019
