Once again, Kosta Browne comes through with a stunner. This is not your delicate flowery Pinot that decided it would be a a ski bum in Mount Hood, Oregon...this one makes no apologies about being a big, bold, in your face California Pinot.On the nose, it's rose petals smashed into a queen-size bed of dark chocolate, with a hint of marshmallow and spice. The palate is stemmy - good tree bark stemmy - with a wash of rose petals, mocha and dried cherry.
Okay, so that was a little dramatic on the description, but, at least take this away - if you have not had Kosta Browne Pinot Noir before, I'm not sure I want to hear from you until you have.
My rating: 93

Nice to hear from you RJ!
How did you get your hands on this wine so quickly? Wasn't it just released a couple days ago?
I agree. It is my wine of the month. Coming back with a big one!
