Kistler
Hudson Vineyard Chardonnay
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.
A battle between this and the Stone Flat for White of the day, but this edged out. Very little oak presence, but it still had a great body and texture to it without being overly crisp. Some wanted to go to burgundy with this, but the aromatics gave it away...you could tell is was a premier producer's young wine. Lovely stuff.

It's no Kongsgaard but, it's pretty damn good.
