Kistler Vine Hill Chardonnay 2020 presents a pale, green-tinged yellow hue. Aromas of fresh thyme, lemon verbena and pine dominate the nose, offering a complex yet measured profile. On the palate, the wine showcases peach and a custardy richness, juxtaposed with a notable saline minerality that provides depth. The structure reflects high natural acidity, contributing to a tightly focused mouthfeel. Kistler Vineyards, founded in 1978, is recognised for its commitment to artisan winemaking, utilising low-intervention techniques.
