Couple of Kistler Chards from Vine Hill Vineyard

2003 Kistler Chardonnay Vine Hill Vineyard – USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley (5/29/2010)
Fresh baked croissants and lemon zest. Great minerality with river rocks and petrol. Sweet oak well balanced. Lovely wine now. Depending on how you like them, drink or hold this gem. (93 pts.)

1997 Kistler Chardonnay Vine Hill Vineyard – USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley (5/29/2010)
Roasted chestnuts, lemon oil… Several other tasters have summed this up, in my opinion, correctly: Not the biggest and best older Kistler, but still quite nice. (90 pts.)
