Jan 28th, 20192013 vintage. The 100% whole clusters come through in the still-substantial structure of this wine. Bright red and blue fruits dusty tannins and a very nice finish. Still seems young, but very nice now with a brief decant.

Dec 30th, 2018Lovely, sensual nose as I have come to expect from JK...balanced red to dark fruits as juice evolves in the glass

Nov 18th, 2017Cherry fruit, with spice and tea notes finishing with cranberry. Fuller bodied for a Pinot. I am quite frustrated by Kutch. All wine is subjective but I disagree with most of the ratings. To me it comes off as young, green and harsh. I see the potential but find the "greenness" at this stage quite off-putting. I opened a bottle just to see where things stood. I have quite a bit of it in the cellar so it's pretty frustrating that it's nowhere near ready IMHO.

Nov 13th, 2016This is in a good place right now. The intense whole cluster fermentation structure is settling down and it's drinking nicely now. Bright red fruits with a lively finish. 2013 vintage.

Sep 25th, 2016Wow. Definitely the rich dark fruit of Sonoma Coast but still lean and light on alcohol (12. 3%) but heavy on flavor and intensity. Secondary foresty and mild spice too. Very very good
