Kutch Wines
Jamie Kutch’s route to winemaking began late. He had graduated in finance and found himself increasingly bored with the rat race of New York trading floor. As he became more and more fixated on wine and the industry, he would chuck it all in and relocate to California, armed with savings, a steadfast determination and unbridled passion to produce Pinot Noir. His inaugural releases came as recently as 2005. After a rocky road, Kutch is today considered one of the leading exponents of Pinot Noir, ever refining and thrilling for wines of refinement, brightness and translucent expression of place.
Description
“Everything about the aroma is subtle at first: citrus, a reductive touch (struck match) and underneath something rather pretty even though it is clearly a cool-climate restrained style. With air that struck-match character shows more clearly. In the mouth this is more powerful, with marked (and delicious) reductive character and real drive across the palate. Intense and beautifully fresh and lingering on the finish.” JR
