Note di degustazione
More vibrant, floral notes emerge from the 2017 Pinot Noir Rosella’s Vineyard, which has complex notes of candied cherries, orange blossom, raspberries, and exotic spices all emerging from the glass. Playing in the medium-bodied end of the spectrum, it offers integrated acidity as well as a fresh, focused texture and shows the more racy, lively style of the vineyard beautifully.

More vibrant, floral notes emerge from the 2017 Pinot Noir Rosella’s Vineyard, which has complex notes of candied cherries, orange blossom, raspberries, and exotic spices all emerging from the glass. Playing in the medium-bodied end of the spectrum, it offers integrated acidity as well as a fresh, focused texture and shows the more racy, lively style of the vineyard beautifully. While I review Kosta Bowne in the Sonoma report, I was able to taste a handful of wines from both Santa Barbara County and the Santa Lucia Highlands for this report.
Aged 19 months in 41% new French oak, the 2017 Pinot Noir Rosella's Vineyard is medium ruby in the glass and youthfully shy on the nose, slowly offering rose petal, crushed stone, fresh cranberries and Bing cherries. It's light to medium-bodied, perfumed and elegant with a gentle, grainy frame and fantastic juicy freshness to lift the finish. This feels youthfully closed or like I got it on an off day, so my score may look conservative later. 475 cases produced.
A cooler site that gets early fog that lingers long and protects the vines. The nose is very perfumed and fragrant with a fresh core of red cherries. The palate delivers detailed and defined tannins that hold focused and fresh. Long, smooth finish. Ripe tannins and higher alcohol (14.7%) add richer texture. Drink or hold.
