1/2 decanted 1.5 hours and 1/2 poured after opening. Cranberry, light cherry, cola, damp earth and complex spice. Full and long but not heavy or cloying. No need to decant. In fact, the oak become a little too prominent after decanting so the group preferred the pours directly after opening. Very well made and can go several more years but it is in a good spot now. I would have liked it even better if the use of oak was more restrained.

Rich, dark berries. Still a little tight, might improve.

Could be the best California Pinot I've ever had. Very different from the traditional Kosta Browne Pinot's as it was much more elegant.
