McCrea Vineyard Athearn Estate Chardonnay 2012
Nice clean nose with tropical notes and hints of dairy. Some baking spices and long acid finish. Nice to taste this young guy after having the 04 last month. #kistler #chardonnayday — 10 years ago
@Eric Waxman Excellent! I've always liked McCrea too and actually ages pretty well. My favorite was the 2011 Trenton Roadhouse in the end. Took some time for the sulfur to blow off it but eventually came around.
Funny you should. mention that. I have found the Mcrea ages the best as well and have had some less good experience with their other Vineyards, particularly the Vine Hill.
@Eric Waxman I had the 2011 Vine Hill that day too. I didn't review it on here but I recall it not being of my taste. My mother would love it.

Trenton Roadhouse Chardonnay 2012
This has a lot to offer. Great structure and tension holding back a lot of fruit and complexity #kistler #trentonroadhouse #chardonnay #sonomacoast — 9 years ago

Rendezvous Red Bordeaux Blend 2010
Nicely juicy and quaffable. Fairly high alcohol but nicely balanced, so that didn't matter. Seems to have a trace of RS that worked well. I'd buy it!
Would you pay 60 bucks for it though?
Depending on my other options at that price point, definitely. I can think of lots of $60 I don't want to drink!

Perfectly aged, this California chardonnay from
Kistler was simply stunning! Notes of dried pineapple, lemon curd, and vanilla bean on the nose, with the complexity of preserved lemons, butterscotch, and toasted almonds on the finish. A golden Valentine's day treat! #liquidgold #Kistler
