March 11, 2023 - Matter of Taste Zurich, Grand Walkaround Tour. Darker fruit profile of plum, but not too extracted. Electric acidity. Nothing wrong, but this didn’t resonate with me. Much preferred the Cuvée Natalie (2016).

April 30, 2021 - I like this though was expecting more. It took about 45 minutes to open but eventually broadened out. Not as luscious as other Kistler. Will wait on the remaining bottles. Lots of potential here.

August 24, 2020 - Excellent Pinot Noir! Excellent now but would benefit with some more aging to develop more balance and secondary characteristics. Nose of red fluit: cherries, cranberries, raspberries, also tobacco, rose petals, dry leaves. Palate is on the fruitier side but has enough acidity for balance. Finish is medium to long. 92 pts but may improve 1-2 pts with further aging
