Pretty classic for the most part. Nose has equal parts apple fruit (with a hint of underripe peach), chicken broth, wet limestoney sea shells, and a light toasty note. Good flavor intensity in the mouth, bone dry, vague whiff of oak, bright minerality driving the flavors. I would ideally like the acids to be higher, but we fucked up the planet so much that’s asking too much. Still very good! — 4 years ago

Greener than this dude 🤢 but in such a lovely, complex and nuanced way. Cracked green pepper corns, twiglets, black olive, potting shed, scorched earth. Sappy earthy and stoney palate, delicate, lacy and long. — 8 years ago

Cherry, menthol aromas. Medium bodied with medium acidity, more cherry fruit with earthy herbal flavors on the palate. Silky, smooth finish, hint of blackberry. Prior bottles of this vintage seemed to leaner/ greener, but not this one. Upright 5 days, decanted off sediment. — 4 years ago

Like a Sangiovese but with a ‘greener’ nose. Strong body, tannic finish, but not overwhelming. Earth tones — 5 years ago

On a different planet ... the nose is burgundian to the nth degree. Mature fruits yet still lifted by a bead of acidity. Earthy flavors are beginning to show up but the wine is still very primary. It is wines like these that make me remember why i fell in love with pinot. — 6 years ago

Tasted blind. Nice bright tawny color. Notes of cherry, rhubarb, stems, moist soil and pea shoots. Lots of fruit in the mouth. A bit disjointed and kind of went all over the place. I guessed red burgundy, and there were other guesses citing other continents. A true CMF wine. We all guessed the color and the planet right. — 7 years ago

Just about our most favorite wine on the planet. Needs a healthy decant to show everything she’s got. After 4 hours the complexity and integration hits its stride. Tropical fruit (mostly pineapple) with zero tartness. 60 second finish. Much better balance than the 2012 regular Kongsgaard which is still too tight. — 8 years ago

Quite possibly the best value wine on the planet!! Bold nose and very deep and inky. Wonderful blackberry and cherry on the palate, with subtle hints of tobacco. Try this blind and you'll be impressed! — 9 years ago
