Best Kistler that I've ever had. Definitely more of a mineral-driven chard, which is more 'my style.' The nose of this wine right after cork pop is a litlte peculiar, but gets a lot more enjoyable after 30 minutes. Nose of Asian pear, mango, melon, tame citrus notes. These notes are repeated on the palate, with a mineral density. On the entry, this is a wine that has rounded edges yet stone ground fruit palate. Finish is still quite dry. Herb rich, fruit dominant, dry. Beautiful. This one will go a few more years for sure.

2010 is awesome. Good balance of butter and acid.
