Saturday, July 27, 2019 - July 2019 Kutch Visit (Jamie's Pad in SFO): Drank as part of a complete vertical of all Kutch Chards (14-17, to include Trout Gulch). This was the first designated vintage for TG, although it did play a large role in composing the 2014 SCM Chard, which is a genius wine. Little lift of green herb in the aroma, and following the 2014-2016 Chards, this was the fleshiest of the four for me, even a bit creamy with white pepper, green apple and ginger. Spicy pear in the finish with a supportive apple note....retasted the following morning from the leftover bottle at room temp, this shows a bright, distinct lemon peel, which them marries with the texture to convey some lemon custard. Of note, this wine is labeled at 13.4% ABV, which is about 3/4ths of a point of alcohol higher than the previous three Chards (all were around 12.7%). This also has a wet stone feel to the palate, and is just a little more gentle on the acidity as to compared to the other Chards. Very good.
