Chardonnay Les Noisetiers di Kistler Vineyards è un vino bianco di grande raffinatezza e complessità, prodotto con cura e passione dal rinomato vigneto californiano. Questa espressione di Chardonnay si distingue per il suo equilibrio perfetto tra struttura e freschezza, caratteristiche che rispecchiano meticolosamente il terroir unico della regione di Sonoma Coast.

Al calice, il vino si presenta con un colore dorato brillante e sfumature paglierine, che invitano alla degustazione. Al naso, Chardonnay Les Noisetiers rivela un bouquet aromatico intenso e complesso, con note predominanti di frutta a polpa bianca, come la mela e la pera, accompagnate da sentori di agrumi e un tocco floreale. Spiccano anche delicate nuance di nocciola e di vaniglia, risultato di una maturazione sapiente in botti di rovere francese.

In bocca, Chardonnay Les Noisetiers offre una straordinaria armonia tra la freschezza della sua acidità e la ricchezza della sua consistenza cremosa. Il palato viene avvolto da sapori ricchi e avvolgenti di frutta matura, con un finale persistente che lascia percepire eleganti note minerali. La struttura e l'equilibrio di questo vino lo rendono un accompagnamento ideale per piatti di pesce, crostacei, pollame e formaggi a pasta molle.

Kistler Vineyards, con la sua dedizione alla qualità e alla tradizione, continua a essere un punto di riferimento per gli appassionati di grandi Chardonnay californiani, e Chardonnay Les Noisetiers ne è la conferma appassionante e irresistibile.

Management transition began in 2008 with Jason Kesner and was consolidated after 2017.
Winery history
Founded in 1978 by Steve Kistler and Mark Bixler, Kistler grew as a family-owned winery dedicated to producing wines that reflect their place of origin. In 2008 Bill Price acquired a stake, and that same year Jason Kesner joined the team as a cellar assistant; Kesner later became head winemaker during the generational transition. Steve Kistler retired at the end of 2017. The estate also opened a tasting facility in the 2010s.
Production philosophy
Terroir-driven approach: use of selected plant material, viticulture guided by soil quality and site exposure, fermentations with indigenous yeasts and minimal cellar intervention to let the site express itself.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards span from Carneros to Sonoma Valley, and from the Russian River Valley to the Sonoma Coast; the winery states that it works with seventeen vineyards across five appellations and produces bottles sourced from multiple site-designated parcels.
