Kistler, Sonoma Coast, Kistler Vineyard, Pinot Noir 2012 EARTH full bodied but the acidityConsecutive Serial Numbers 95 points Vinous The 2012 Pinot Noir Kistler Vineyard comes across as quite supple and voluptuous today, with tons of upfront juiciness. Racy and opulent from the outset, the Kistler Vineyard blossoms with notable depth and layers of enveloping fruit. Dark red cherry, plum, spice and lavender add the final notes of complexity in a racy, perfumed Pinot to drink over the next decade. (AG) (1 2015) 95 Points CellarTracker Light
