Big fruit up front. Very smooth finish. Glad I let this sit until now.

Gap’s KB at 6 years age is the pinnacle of KB. Absolutely stunning.

Tasty red fruits with a touch of spice and a nice finish. Ready to drink now. 2015 vintage.

Excellence in Pinot Noirs...2015 Gap's Crown Vineyard, Sonoma Coast. Smokey medium bouquet but so subtle full flavor flavor flavor deep bodied complex red-purple berry...this is a silky smooth vino cascading from glass to palate... lingering finish. No mistaking this is among best of the best Pinots. Alas...way too drinkable, and way too expensive...

KB was my Pinot gateway drug. After many less extracted bottles, I always forget how dark and full any KB is. Every so often I like jumping in, albeit briefly.
