Coming from the Russian River Valley, the 88-case 2014 Pinot Noir Cohn Vineyard offers a medium-bodied, savory and mineral-laced style as well as lots of white pepper, strawberry, spice and assorted red fruits. Elegant, lightly textured, graceful and with fine tannin, it will cruise in the cellar through 2024+. The cuvee saw 43% new French oak.

The tiny production (it’s their smallest release, 50 some odd cases) 2013 Pinot Noir Cohn Vineyard (this is Russian River) gives up lots of Bing cherry, mulled spices and a dried violet-like quality to go with medium to full-bodied richness on the palate. Ripe, sexy, voluptuous and textured, yet with solid tannic grip on the finish, this beauty was completely destemmed and aged 16 months in 57% new French oak. Drink it anytime over the coming 5-6 years. Kosta Browne's first ever single vineyard Pinot Noir was from this vineyard.

First made in 2000 (and the first commercial Pinot Noir for this estate), the 2012 Pinot Noir Cohn Vineyard is the first single-vineyard release from this vineyard since 2004. Coming from the northern most part of the Russian River Valley, it's a wonderfully complete Pinot Noir that has the classic, Russian River spice profile to go with beautifully rich, red and black fruits, licorice, toasted bread and charred earth. A full-flavored, rich and layered effort, it nevertheless stays nicely balanced, has notable freshness and terrific length. It should evolve nicely, but I see no reason to delay gratification here as it's superb today.
