Ken Brown Wines



Introducing two new wines from the 2018 vintage—must haves for the grilling season ahead, or maybe a small gathering around the outdoor fire pit!


NEW RELEASES

Ken Brown 2016 Radian Vineyard Pinot Noir2018 RANCHO LA VIÑA VINEYARD  PINOT NOIR
This remarkable vineyard is located at the far southwestern edge of the Sta. Rita Hills appellation where the vines are fully exposed to cool winds coming off the Pacific Ocean. The wine features a luxurious aromatic profile with pure fruit expression interwoven with layers of complexity. Aromas of dark cherry, ripe plum and leather are enhanced by hints of forest floor, smokiness and clove. Flavors of black cherry, cranberry and rhubarb give way to rich, chalky tannins accented by refreshing acidity and a long finish. Additional cellaring will add even more complexity to this wine, assuring excellent aging potential. More info.

Ken Brown 2018 A Cuvee Syrah2018 A CUVÉE SYRAH
This luscious wine blends warmer climate Syrah from McGinley Vineyard in Happy Canyon with cooler climate Syrah from Watch Hill Vineyard in Alisos Canyon. The result is a superbly integrated and balanced wine. Rich, concentrated aromas of blueberry jam, ripe blackberry and black plum mingle with accents of chocolate, eucalyptus and cedar. Vibrant flavors of juicy blackberry and plum are highlighted by hints of violets and mint, which culminate in a lingering finish and touch of spice. The plush texture and complex profile will only be enhanced with additional time in the cellar. More info.
