  • Another bottle similar to my last several of these. Consistent notes with previous bottle. Still have two left that I will likely plan to get to sometime in the next year.

  • Perfect cork at 11 years and a really enjoyable drinkable experience. It won’t knock your socks off, but the dark red fruit aromas are still vibrant, albeit with a sense of subtlety. Lightening at the edges, color wise. Palate is fresh with bright acidity and a lingering finish. Nicely done, Kosta Browne. Drink now. This might have a little more gas in the tank.

  • Delicious, this wine is tasting extremely good right now !! I agree with my tasting note of the past month !!
    The cork was nearly perfect after a decade in the bottle. This is a balanced Pinot Noir blend that I consumed with friends at dinner. Deep ruby color with no oxidation, clarity medium. Aromas of pomegranate and caramel, flavors of sweet cranberry, cherry, rhubarb, and forest floor with a pleasant medium finish. Great fruit with firm acidity made into a very balanced Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast appellation of Sonoma County. This Pinot Noir is an age worthy wine and has more years of life left. Unfortunately, I have no more bottles of this vintage remaining.

I still have one more bottle of this vintage remaining; I will open it soon to validate my tasting note.
