Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2025-2032, Jancis Robinson MW, Dec 2023

Full bottle 1,293 g. Vineyard planted in 1998 at 1,010 feet and 3.5 miles from the Pacific on greywacke and sandstone. Picked by hand as early as 24 August. 50% whole cluster. Spontaneous fermentation, like all Kutch wines, plus no added lactic bacteria. Aged in eight neutral French oak barrels. Transparent purplish crimson. Less expressive on the nose at present than the Falstaff 2022 and with more marked acidity and fine tannin. Hints of raspberry. This should mature into something delightful but needs time. (JR)
