The 2016 'Les Noisetiers' Chardonnay is a stunning release from Kistler that instantly grabs your attention with a gorgeous saline streak from the diatomaceous earth that builds on the nose alongside lighter Marcona almond and vanilla cream and hazelnut tones. White peach, candied grapefruit and vanilla crème brûlée complete the palate. The salinity and minerality of this wine is truly stunning as the near minute long finish completes this wonderful Sonoma Coast bottling.
