Kosta Browne's Keefer Ranch Pinot Noir is an exquisite expression of Russian River Valley terroir. On the nose, the wine reveals aromas of ripe raspberry and dried cranberry, softened by whiffs of cocoa powder and cedar. On the palate, the wine is lush and powerful, with vibrant flavors of dark cherry, boysenberry, and blackberry. There's a hint of earthiness and a touch of toasted oak that brings balance to the palate. The finish is long and lingering, with notes of spice and leather that linger on the tongue. This Pinot Noir is a pleasure to drink and a superb expression of the Kosta Browne winemaking philosophy.
