Monday, January 4, 2021 - Kutch 2019 Lineup with Jamie and the Crew: Kutch as a philosophy of over delivering on the AVA wines, it's by design. While some producers use an AVA wine to dump barrels that don't make the grade Kutch and a few other producers have taken another tack which is use top shelf barrels in the AVA. I also like the strategy of blending in multiple vineyards into the AVA because the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

Nose is sweet/fruity. Red fruit. Definitely getting whole cluster on this wine, I think there's a few special barrels of Mindego that used whole cluster unlike the vineyard designated Mindego. Very long finish with firm/strong tannins. This wine is rocky/crunchy right now. Winner.
