Thursday, April 17, 2008 - Nice fruit and spice filled nose with a little Dr Pepper and or Cola. More foward than I expected. I thought it would be tighter than this from previous experience drinking Kosta Browne's young. Big concentrated, sweet fruit flavors with a nice backbone to it. This should age extremely well and is already drinking well now. I'm decanting overnight to see into the future.
After 2 hour decant: Very aromatic, lots of earth with sweet red fruit and Cola. Big concentrated sweet fruit with some spice followed by some bitterness. Very smooth. I'd lay it down for a couple of years. I'm repurchasing a few bottles. 93Pts on potential.
Overnight decant: High acidity will help this concentrated Pinot age very well. Silky and elegant in texture but with alot of flavor to it. Very nice albeit overpriced but so is Burgundy.
