Kistler Les Noisetiers Chardonnay 2024

Kistler Les Noisetiers Chardonnay 2024 is one of California’s benchmark Chardonnays, crafted by a producer long regarded as an icon of the style. Sourced from carefully selected sites in Russian River Valley, it brings together cool-climate freshness, depth, and a distinctly polished, ageworthy profile.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a bright, expressive character with layered aromas of white flowers, lemon, ripe pear, peach, and citrus confit. Subtle notes of toasted hazelnut, brioche, butter, and vanilla from French oak add complexity without overwhelming the fruit. The palate is generous and concentrated, yet remarkably precise, with vivid acidity and a mineral edge that keeps everything focused. The finish is long, elegant, and finely textured, and the wine has the structure and balance to develop beautifully over time.

Production
Les Noisetiers is made from grapes grown in selected Russian River Valley vineyards, where the cool maritime influence and sandy Goldridge soils help preserve freshness and finesse. Kistler works with low yields and meticulous hand-harvesting, followed by fermentation and aging in French oak barrels. The wine is bottled without fining or filtration to retain maximum texture, depth, and site expression.

Food & Serving
This Chardonnay pairs beautifully with lobster, turbot, scallops, butter-poached fish, roast chicken, and creamy pasta dishes. Serve chilled at around 10–12°C, and consider a short decant if opening it young to help the aromatics unfold.

Producer
Kistler is one of California’s most respected Chardonnay producers and has helped define the benchmark for premium American Chardonnay over several decades. Known for its uncompromising vineyard selections and distinctive house style, the estate has earned an international reputation among collectors and Chardonnay enthusiasts alike.
