2005 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir Russian River Valley

2005 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir Russian River Valley - drank over dinner at the Drawing Room. This just couldn't get any more Californian... huge nose of iron & minerals, orange, tropical fruits, very sweet and jammy, extremely ripe both on the nose and the palate. The nose was also very alcoholic, although it weighs in at just under 15%. A very different beast from the likes of Kistler and Marcassin.

Full post on dinner is here.
