Lovely sappy fruit. Very charming. Fairly complex, young and exuberant. There is a certain charm and beauty to it. I don’t feel that the Kosta Browne entry level wines warrant the hype or the absurd price point, but this is obviously well-made and broadly appealing. A pleasure to taste.

Had this with a William Selyem. Side by side, KB was bold and dense with deep plum and blueberry overtones. Still very young, but tasty.

Blackberries pepper earth cassis, fruity but earthy in a perfect balance ... quiet Sunday night almost a shame not to share this with someone special

Berries up front and some pepper at the finish. Good pregame bottle.
