Got to take advantage of another Wednesday Wine Committee and boy was it worth it. Wow! Killer wines brought by Glenn for his 60th! As always, wines tasted blind. 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 4 reds, 1 dessert wine.
Again, the table pegged this as Kistler. The main discussion was could it be a vertical or a horizontal? Lots of similarities leaned us towards horizontal. My first Hyde vineyard Chardonnay...gorgeous. Out of the 3 Kistler's, I think this benefited most from air time. A lot of lemon cream balanced by bread/toast notes alongside butter. Not citrusy or tropical.

Every sip is a mouthful of nectar. Layers of butter, peaches, pears.
