  Decanted. Over 90 minutes this opened up and showed quite a bit of nuance. Moderate aromas/flavors of fresh red berries, cherries, roses, earth, and a faint hints of stems. Elegant. One could confuse this for a higher end Burgundy. Enjoyable now, with upside over the next decade. 94+

  BYO USA (Centropa, Oslo, Norway): Noe utviklet farge med mørkere kjerne. Intens duft av bringebær og moreller. Intenst anslag med flott rødt bærpreg, vi finner moreller og bringebær og en dæsj lakris, og et interessant salt-preg jeg sjelden finner i rødvin. Finkornet, behagelig tanningrep, ren syre og alt i alt en veldig kul vin.

  No formal notes taken
  Developed but still quite fruit forward - loaded with soy sauce umami notes which I found very nice - not as complex as I had hoped for however
  Definitely California origin but more secondary character than most
  Drinking well now but no signs of decline

  Light color, reticent with high acidity Raspberry, rhubarb, herbs. Understated for a California Pinot and all the better for it. Did not develop much over an hour and a half, maintaining its structure. This is a subtle wine and more may come with time. I don’t drink much California Pinot noir (although I am a fan of Kutch), but I would if they were more like this wine. Excellent with reverse seared steak, sautéed mustard greens and corn outside in early summer.

  67 Pall Mall post TWS Burgundy Tasting (67 Pall Mall): Medium red. Quite bold, with ripe high-toned red fruit very much to the fore. Very delicious, but a little one-dimensional as a result. This was late on in the evening and did not matter one jot!
