There a few wineries, globally, whose name is as synonymous with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir as Kistler. Their pursuit of perfecting single site, terroir driven wines started in 1978 when Steve Kistler and Mark Bixler took action on their belief that remarkable Chardonnays and Pinots of site could in fact be grown and produced in California. It was a notion ahead of its time.
Since the mid 1980s their Chardonnay wines have been produced exclusively from a singular clone of Chardonnay which was imported to California from Burgundy over a century ago. This particular clone was selected due to how well it has adapted to the Californian growing season, producing low yields of high quality, small berries, great concentration in the fruit and its distinct ability to retain its natural acidity.
