Kutch Wines
Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
Did not disappoint. Liquid minerals and lots of acid.

May 3rd, 2024Kutch's 2015 Chardonnay (Sonoma Coast) is a very pretty wine that straddles the line between the more reductive style of the 2014 and lusher expression found in the 2016. Lemon peel, white flowers, chalk, mint and white pepper give the 2015 brightness, aromatic lift and tension. Insistent saline notes punctuate the driving finish. Most of the fruit is from Bohan, although about 10% of the grapes came from Trout Gulch, in the Santa Cruz Mountains. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, April 2018)

Apr 26th, 2018Richer fruit than the SCM chard from the previous year and with mouth puckering acidity, refreshing at 12.7%. This has a ton of depth and could benefit from a couple more years to settle in, just at the beginning of its drinking window.

Feb 17th, 2018My first Kutch. Needs time. Nose is gorgeous...wet stone, graphite, butterscotch. Palate is very different...fairly tart. Green apple, stone fruit, lemon sours. Could see this being very good in 3-5yrs.

Feb 14th, 2024Lovely again. Still lots of life but drinking great now. The TG has a bit more acidity and this feels softer/fuller. Both great.
