Pnp then followed for 1-2 hours. Nose of raspberries, strawberry, red cherry. Palate was similar fruits but then also loganberry, cranberry, black tea on the finish. Medium - body, medium + acid, great balance and mouthfeel. Basically no oak. Pure fruited and glorious. A high 91pts.

This 2015 is in a very good place right now. An excellent pairing with a large medium-rare grilled King salmon filet.

Great red fruits that really reached it's prime towards the end of the dinner. I would decant for an hour or drink in 2024.

Drinking beautifully - full of complex and layered fruit that evolves while in the mouth. This was one of the best of the many excellent KW wines

PnP from a 375. This little halfsie came off as more advanced than I would have guessed. Nose is a little sweet with baking spices and burnt caramel, iron, smoke. Quite light and lean on the palate, which is on the plus side of ripe, with black cherry predominating. Finish is pretty satisfying after being let down with it up to that point.

Lithe and elegant. Blissful, perfumed and flowery nose. Earth, cinnamon, spice, and silky, ribbons of red fruit.

Light body and tannins, pleasant acidity, long finish. Some pomegranate, smoked meat. A little bitter in the finish. It’s a serious wine, good for some reflection and introspection.

Fresh and juicy. Ready right from the start. More full bodied with a darker fruit profiled than I was expecting.

Pinot funk and berries, nice bite and balance. Burgundy-esque and a buy.
