Lunch at the Club last Friday with the family. Interesting back story. Jason Kesner is the Head Winemaker at Kistler since 2014 and this is his private venture. Hugh who doesn’t drink a lot of high end wine interestingly thought the wine had a note of Church Pew. I also detected an earthy sooty note. A rich palate of plum, raspberry and strawberry. Guessing a little whole bunch included - a stalky note. More full bodied than most Australian Pinots. Good that the club sourced this at 10 years of age.

Aug 19th, 2016On the light side of Pinot's, very smooth and a delicate fruit finish. Smooth fruits - nothing bold stands out, maybe a slight grape or raspberry. But definite soft finish. Went very well with fried chicken.
