April 24, 2024 - California wines but not from Napa: This is what I hope that Kistler has become. The buttery oak is quite dialed back, it is in the background. Golden fruit, rocky minerality and crisp acidity.

April 21, 2024 - Monthly Tasting Group: California: Anything but Napa (BLVD Kitchen & Bar, Wayzata, MN): Same bottle as galweskj. Small pour. Agree on the comments. This seemed balanced and contained, in a good way. I thought it was a fair bit better than the '16 Dutton Ranch.

December 28, 2023 - No real notes, this one seemed just slightly over the hill, which is young in my experience with Kistler.

May 28, 2023 - started a little tight but opened up with air and time to reveal a balance of slightly crisp acidity with some buttery mouthfeel. Probably won't get better with more time so drink now
