Founded in 1997 in the charming town of Sebastopol in Sonoma County, Kosta Browne produces some of California’s finest Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays. In total the winery has featured on Wine Spectator’s “Top 100 Wines” list seven times since 2005.
Led by talented winemaker Julien Howsepian, the enology team crafts exquisite wines from cool climate vineyards spread across the Russian River Valley, Sonoma Coast, Santa Rita Hills, and Santa Lucia Highlands. They source fruit from trusted partner growers as well as the 170 acres of vineyards which the winery owns or leases.
This magnificent Sonoma Coast Pinot is created from fruit from both northern and southern parts of the appellation which gives it greater complexity and balance. After vinification in stainless steel tanks, part of the young wine is aged in French oak for up to 16 months. Deep notes of blueberry, dark cherry, and plum dominate on the nose, while the first sip reveals punchy tannins, a full body, and a solid core of rich ripe berries. This is a great robust red to pair with hearty game dishes or to enjoy alongside beef stews or roast lamb.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
