Kistler Durell Vineyard Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2014

Limited single-vineyard Kistler Chardonnay now available. 94+ Points Robert Parker:  "The Chardonnay Durell Vineyard shows plenty of stone fruits, orange marmalade and delicate apricot in a rich, full-bodied style. Drink it over the next 4-6 years.... ...The single-vineyard wines all represent much smaller quantities of wine. There have been several noticeable changes in the Kistler wines over the last few years, as they are certainly picking the Pinot Noir at an earlier date and going for less extraction, more fragrance and delicacy. The Chardonnays are still powerful wines but they have backed off the new oak to about 40%. (About 10 years ago, it was around 60%.) Other than that they are still potent and rich Chardonnays that are meant to be drunk in their first 4-6 years of life.
