2002 Kosta Browne Kanzler Vineyard Pinot Noir

[dananne]

Sonoma Coast.

Decanted for 20 minutes before 1st pour and through evening, but this didn't last long. Bright, clear ruby in color, with a nose of cherry, red spices, and a floral element (roses? I'm bad with flowers). Sweet cherry fruit on the entry, mixing with red plum flavors and spices on the finish, which is long and lingering. Beautiful texture, and you really want to roll it around on your tongue. Simply great juice. Went so fast that I wish I had paid better attention. Anne loved it, too, as did our evening guests. One of the better PNs we've had this year. I'm really looking forward to the Kosta Browne 03s now. Alc. 14.7% and well integrated. Anne bought it at Vintage Wines in San Diego for $48.
