November 24, 2023 - Wow. Another Kistler stunner.
Stone fruit (nectarine) and tropical fruit (pineapple) lemon custard, just a little bit of butter. Clean, expensive oak. Some flinty-ness in the long finish.
Good acid on the mid-palate to finish. Complex.
So enjoyable to experience this wake up in the glass and start soaring.
A lesson in structure and complexity. 8/101 person found this helpful Comment -
