2010 Kistler Chardonnay Cuvée Cathleen Sonoma Valley

ワイナリー・ヴィンテージ・ノート

Our 2010 and 2011 chardonnays and pinot noirs will help to illustrate how compelling the wines can be from California’s best vineyards in the coolest, most challenging growing seasons. These wines are vibrant, tightly-wound wines which display the energy, balance, and precision that can only come from a long, cool growing season. Our vineyards produce their best wines in the late vintages when the grapes are slow to ripen and true ripeness is achieved at lower sugar levels. Low yields give these wines plenty of depth and flavor intensity while their low pH and firm backbones provide energy, focus and restraint.

When attempting to produce world class pinot noir and chardonnay, it is a distinct advantage to farm your own vineyards. Our skilled vineyard teams were tested in 2010 and 2011 and performed exceedingly well; their level of commitment is reflected in each of our wines.

ワインメーカー・テイスティング・ノート

Green-tinged pale yellow. A compelling, soil-influenced wine. Concentrated, bright, and sharply delineated; it shows outstanding density and energy, but also a magically light touch. Finishes long and persistent. Delicious.

The 2010 Chardonnay Kistler Vineyard Cuvee Cathleen emerges from a single block within the Kistler Vineyard. Here the flavors are bright, nuanced and highly articulated, in stark contrast with the Kistler Vineyard. Today, the Cuvee Cathleen gives the impression of being almost weightless on the palate. Crushed rocks and a host of saline notes underpin the gorgeous finish. My sense is that the 2010 will blossom even more with additional time in bottle. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2020.

It is always a pleasure to visit with Steve Kistler and his partner Mark Bixler. The 2011s and 2010s are excellent across the board, although I currently have a preference for the 2011s. Vintage 2011 is shaping up beautifully, for both the Chardonnays and Pinots. As was the case throughout the region, the season was cool and slow to develop. The 2011s were picked at lower sugars than is the norm here, but very much in keeping with the personality of the year. Steve Kistler commented that a poor set in 2011 resulted in their lowest crop loads in years. Like a lot of his colleagues, Kistler noted that the experiences of 2010 had a huge positive impact on how he responded to similar challenges in 2011. The 2010 Chardonnays are beautiful across the board. Although solid, the 2010 Pinots aren’t quite at the level of the superb 2009s and I expect, ultimately, the 2011s. It was a tough vintage for the Pinots. Yields were mercilessly low. Sadly, there is no Cuvee Elizabeth, as the little fruit that came in went into the Kistler Vineyard bottling.
