American wines at Park90: Only bottled in magnum and available at SingleThread apparently. Very good, on first impression it was similar to another Kistler Chardonnay that I have tried - would have guessed both as Burgs blind. Quite obviously woody but I think I am more tolerant of oak in whites than reds. Citrus yellow fruit was dominant at first but the tropical fruit began to show with air, similar experience to the other Kistler that I have tried before. Good acidity and very impressive nonetheless.

Favorites - 2022 Wine Spectator Grand Tour - Las Vegas: Aromas of citrus zest and fruit, white florals, crushed rock and powdered clove and ginger. Rich, just a huge middle palate, but lifted and bright, loads and depth and refined throughout. Great closing length. (WOTF-2)

Absolutely stunning! Super expressive and balanced. Greenish gold color gives way to ripe pineapple and rich, nutty, popcorn. Ripe melon and honey flavors are framed by energetic herbal saline notes. Slight phenolic grip gives it that structure and serious pedigree. In a great spot with long fresh flavors!
