Another 4th Friday for the books, and one of the best of the year!
Cola and candied brown sugar with kirsch and overripe red fruit. Some underbrush and cedar is here, but the sweet fruit is still taking center stage. That being said, time has been kind to this wine as it’s not as full throttle as expected. Drinking perfectly now.

Had the pleasure of recently tasting 8 Kosta Browne wines. Here is another, Wow! Dark fruit aromas with citrus and exotic spices. On the palate plum and black cherry flavors with a creamy texture, gentle oak and savory wild tannins. Aged for 16 months in 46% new French oak. The well balanced wine had a long finish, nice acidity but needs more time to tame the tannins. Tasting Sample.

Dark cherries and notes of cola. Sort of brooding. A little light on acidity, and a little big for my taste, but an enjoyable wine. #KostaBrowne #Garys #pinot

Drinking perfectly. Wonderful fragrant earthy aromas. Silky smooth on the palate with flavors of cherry, raspberry and watermelon. Yum!
