The 2020 Chardonnay Trenton Roadhouse is much more reticent than the other Chardonnays in the Kistler portfolio this vintage, with flinty, stony notes on the nose. The medium-bodied palate is bright and silky, with lemon candy flavors, sweet spice accents and a long, gently textured finish.

The 2019 Chardonnay Trenton Roadhouse is plush, open-knit and gregarious, offering immediate appeal in a portfolio of cellar-worthy 2019s. The nose is toasty and gregarious with a fragrance of golden apples, roasted almonds and beeswax. The full-bodied palate features loads of expansive fruits and savory tones streaked with graphite and finishing very long and energetic.

The 2018 Chardonnay Trenton Roadhouse is shy on the nose at this very early stage. With coaxing, it slowly allows glimpses into (very perfumed) notes of crushed almonds, oyster brine, dried white blossoms, wet hay and a core of white peaches and quince. The palate is much more open, medium-bodied, smooth as silk and broadening out to savory, honeyed fruits. It has incredibly well-knit juiciness to oppose its inherent savoriness, finishing extraordinarily long and layered. Wow! This world-class Chardonnay will show its best with another three to five years in bottle.

More exotic notes of nectarines, flower oil, crushed citrus, and a liquid rock-like character emerge from the 2018 Chardonnay Trenton Roadhouse. With medium to full-bodied richness, plenty of toasty background oak, great acidity, and flawless balance, it's another complex, nuanced, and seamless Chardonnay that will benefit from a year or two and cruise for 10-15 years in cold cellars.

The 2017 Chardonnay Trenton Roadhouse, from vines planted in Goldridge soils, has a warm, open, savory nose of toasted almond, spring honey, crushed shell, warm white peaches and baked quince with an undercurrent of dried flowers and spices. Medium-bodied, it explodes in the mouth with intense, energetic, spice and earth-laced fruit layers strung with tangy acidity and finishes long, layered and full of verve.
