The 2021 Chardonnay Cuvée Cathleen is bright and crystalline. Scents of oyster shell and saline give way to white peaches, almonds and spring honey. The light-bodied palate is ethereal and vibrant with coiled, mineral-driven fruit and a surprisingly mouth-coating texture. Give it a few years in bottle to unwind.

Trademark Kistler roundness without any hint of diacetyl tones, providing mouth filling envelopment of flavours while also boasting a great and well-integrated acid skeleton that gives the wine great structure and muscularity.
