Item Description
2013 Kosta-Browne Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
The 2013 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir is a blend of vineyards that surround the winemakers' Sebastopol home, which lie in cool areas throughout the Russian River Valley. Aromatics: This layered, complex, beauty of a wine shows rich aromas of wild anise and wisps of bergamot, mingled with the red and dark fresh fruit components of bing cherries, black raspberry, and a hint of rose petal. On the palate: This Russian River Valley Pinot Noir is pure, balanced, lush and focused. On the front are delicate notes of cherries and rose hips that blossom to cola, pomegranate and sun drenched raspberries, culminating with chocolate dipped oranges that coats the palate and lingers long after.
2013 Kosta-Browne Sonoma Coast Pinor Noir
The 2013 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is a blend of eight vineyards: Gap’s Crown, Griffin’s Lair, Kanzler, Pfendler, Spring Hill, Terra de Promissio, Thorn Ridge and Walala. Most of these are located in the southern portion of the Sonoma Coast appellation and lie directly in the path of the Petaluma Wind Gap’s Pacific Ocean cooling and the maritime influence of the San Pablo Bay. Aromatics: The wine shows focused black cherry, ripe currants, and blueberry in the nose, followed by intense blackberry. In the background there is a dusting of cocoa nibs and cassis. On the palate: The 2013 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir first shows dark fruits that focus on the center of the palate then steadily permeates into all areas of the mouth. The focused acidity, balanced with gripping tannins, carries the rich dark fruit character toward the mid-palate, followed by lush black cherry and sealed with ripe currants. Flavors are slowly released from the wine showing a rich complexity of flavors, textures, ending with a long seductive finish.
