Score 93/100 · Drink 2016-2024, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, Sep 2016

Another sensational appellation release is the 2014 Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands. Coming from an early vintage that was over two weeks ahead of average, it has tons of spice, black raspberry, currants and blackberry characteristics, medium to full-bodied richness, a great texture and no shortage of depth or length. Already impossible to resist, drink it anytime over the coming 7-8 years.

The 2014 Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands) is plump, juicy and forward, all qualities that are best enjoyed sooner rather than later. The 2014 offers good up-front juiciness, but then loses some persistence through the mid-palate and into the finish. This is a very pretty appellation-level Pinot from Kosta Browne.
