It goes without saying that Kosta Browne is at the top of their game, having just been named Wine Spectator's #1 wine of 2011 for their Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir. And while we are still working on securing some of this high ranking wine, we were lucky to enough to get our hands on the most recent vineyard designate Pinot Noir releases. Typically hailed as the most premium, high quality Pinots that Kosta Browne makes, the vineyard designates from 2009 are no exception. They are, without a doubt, AMAZING!

These can ship out today so that you can have them in time for Thanksgiving!!
