98-100Vinous / IWC

...stunning, riveting wine, the 2015 pulses across the palate with layers of black cherry, blackberry jam, leather, spice, menthol and grilled herbs. Even with all of its vintage 2015 intensity, Next of Kyn retains terrific freshness. The 2015 naturally needs time to fully come together, but it is a stunner in every way. I came back to it several times during this tasting and was never anything less than completely blown away...

REGION

United States, California, Central Coast

Central Coast AVA is a huge wine producing area that extends from Santa Barbara County in the south to San Francisco in the north. With more than 100,000 vineyard acres, it includes parts of six counties near the Pacific Ocean. Nearly 20 smaller AVAs lie within the Central Coast AVA. Central Coast earned appellation status in 1985. Included in the appellation are parts of the counties of Contra Costa, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz. Nearly every grape varietal grown in California is grown somewhere in the Central Coast AVA, though Chardonnay accounts for nearly 50% of the entire wine grape crop.
