Underrated wine from an underrated vintage. Like many Kosta Browne's I have had from the 2000's, this one has aged gracefully. Sadly, my last bottle of this vintage. I'm curious if the KB wines made now by different ownership and different winemaking will be as lovely at 14 years of age as this one.

Deep red, hints of purple, mostly clear. Strong perfectly ripe cherry, touch of spice, whiff of vanilla and oak, maybe a hint of mushroom. Still drinking well but probably time to finish these bottles.

PnP. No way I would have guessed 13 years old if served blind. Full of black cherry and an array of spices.
