Its considerable reputation is thanks largely to its robust, buttery Chardonnay wines, which have established Kistler as a cult winery since the 1980s. The company was founded in 1978 by Steve Kistler and remains a family-owned and operated winery. It is a relatively small producer, making just 35,000 cases annually, much of which is sold through its significant mailing list. Kistler's focus is the Burgundy varieties, making 10 vineyard-designated Chardonnay wines and four designated Pinot Noir wines. The fruit comes from three AVAs within Sonoma: Sonoma Coast, Sonoma Mountain and Carneros (which overlaps with the Napa Valley AVA). Kistler is seen as one of the pioneers of the buttery, fruit-driven Chardonnays that have come to be closely associated with California. In the winery, the use of small, new-oak barriques and malolactic fermentation have been used over the years to achieve this style of wine. Recent trends have seen a move away from this style, however, and Kistler is beginning to experiment with making more restrained styles of the variety.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2023-06-28T13:14:54-04:00","created_at":"2023-06-28T06:54:22-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","Other_Wine","Producer_Kistler Vineyards","Region_California","RK2706","Source_Hedonism0623","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Chardonnay"],"price":149395,"price_min":149395,"price_max":149395,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43017332097162,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2019 | Kistler Vineyards | Chardonnay (Magnum)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":149395,"weight":24494,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/1_0eea94d3-b446-401a-8ef1-642b046f8dc9.png?v=1687949785"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/1_0eea94d3-b446-401a-8ef1-642b046f8dc9.png?v=1687949785","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2019 | Kistler Vineyards | Chardonnay (Magnum) at CaskCartel.com","id":24732852912266,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.367,"height":368,"width":135,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/1_0eea94d3-b446-401a-8ef1-642b046f8dc9.png?v=1687949785"},"aspect_ratio":0.367,"height":368,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/1_0eea94d3-b446-401a-8ef1-642b046f8dc9.png?v=1687949785","width":135}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 2019 | Kistler Vineyards | Chardonnay (Magnum)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGreen-tinged pale yellow.
