Kosta Browne Pinot Noir Gap's Crown 2016

Red
Petaluma Gap, United States

Bright red fruit and violet aromatics show initial promise, but the wine unravels quickly. The mid-palate turns thin and angular, lacking the richness and texture this celebrated site typically delivers. Tart acidity dominates a brief, unsatisfying finish. Gap's Crown deserves better.
