Kistler Chardonnay Noisetiers 2024

Kistler Chardonnay Les Noisetiers 2024 is an expressive Russian River Valley Chardonnay that combines aromatic freshness with a generous, rounded texture. Sourced from several vineyards, it captures the cool-climate character of one of California’s most celebrated Chardonnay regions while reflecting Kistler’s long-standing, Burgundy-inspired approach to the variety.

Tasting Notes
Bright and inviting in the glass, the 2024 vintage opens with fragrant notes of candied citrus, white flowers and chamomile. Subtle hazelnut and honeyed undertones add depth without overpowering the wine’s lifted, elegant profile. On the palate, it is light on its feet yet remarkably full-bodied, with ripe citrus flavours, a supple texture and well-integrated richness. The finish is expressive and persistent, balancing its generous fruit with refreshing acidity. It can be enjoyed now for its aromatic charm, while careful cellaring should allow further development of its nutty and honeyed nuances over the next several years.

Production
The wine is sourced from multiple sites in the Russian River Valley, a cool, fog-influenced region known for producing Chardonnay with both richness and freshness. The available information does not specify the exact harvesting or vinification methods for the 2024 vintage; however, the wine’s layered texture and hazelnut character suggest a carefully handled, premium Chardonnay made to express both site and vintage.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled at approximately 10–12°C. Its combination of freshness and richness makes it an excellent partner for roasted or grilled fish, shellfish, poultry with creamy sauces, mushroom dishes and soft, mature cheeses. Decanting is not essential, but a brief 15–20 minutes in a carafe can help reveal the wine’s floral and nutty aromas, particularly when enjoyed young.

Producer
Founded in California in 1978, Kistler has become one of the United States’ best-known producers of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The winery is recognised for its precision-driven, Burgundy-inspired wines, with a particular focus on expressive vineyard character and ageability. Les Noisetiers demonstrates the house’s ability to combine the richness associated with California Chardonnay with the poise and freshness of the Russian River Valley.
