Kosta Browne Cerise Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019 750 ML

Over the past quarter-century, the Anderson Valley has emerged as the source for some of California’s most distinctive wines and Cerise as one of the valley’s most preeminent vineyards. Rising from 587 to 1,620 feet, its steep, unforgiving terrain results in thought-provoking wines that combine an untamable spirit with arresting energy and opulence. Pinot Noir blocks sit on the eastern side of the valley, facing west, 16 miles from the coast. There is not a single block on flat ground.

In 2019 everything aligned to create a truly extraordinary version of Pinot Noir from Cerise Vineyard. Exploding with black cherry, baking spice, and black currants, this wine’s depth and smooth structure are exquisite. The endearing rustic energy is enhanced by a soulful palate, understated power, and graceful tannins. An ethereal wine.
