Note di degustazione
The 2017 Pinot Noir Keefer Ranch is another beautiful, classic Pinot Noir from this estate. From the Russian River and brought up in 42% new French oak (there's some Austrian oak as well), it has a great nose of spiced strawberries, mulberries, herbes de Provence, sandalwood, and loads of spice. This carries to a medium to full-bodied, balanced, beautifully textured Pinot Noir that can be drunk today or cellared for 10-12 years. Another estate that has changed their style (for the better, I think), Kosta Browne’s latest 2018s have beautiful purity and elegance as well as richness. They’re certainly in the top handful of wines in this report.

Aged 19 months in 42% new French and 2% new Austrian oak, including just 1% whole cluster, the pale to medium ruby colored 2017 Pinot Noir Keefer Ranch is youthfully shy, with time giving scents of rosewater, tangerine peel, woodsmoke, crushed cranberries and raspberries with earth and bitters accents. Medium-bodied, it's open for business in the mouth, flooding the palate with perfumed red berry fruits. It has a frame of gently grainy tannins and well-woven freshness, finishing long and spicy. This property is now half-owned by Kosta Browne (Schramsberg owns the other half). 2,400 cases produced.
A parcel in the center of the Green Valley with mostly gold-ridge soil. Thereâs a sense of finesse in the aromas here. Flowers and crushed stones dress fresh red cherries in fragrant mode. The palate has a smooth, rich and round feel with darker berries and almost plums. Attractively delivered, smooth power here. Drink now.
