Thank you so much for your notes. I have to say that I am loving those wines right now. I had them all recently at a wine dinner and I had a blast with them. I find the 2003 Sonoma Coast is really starting to turn another corner. I think it's getting elegant while maintaining its richness. The Sonoma Coast wines tend to offer a bit more of that "fresh earth" as they age, adding yet another dimension.
I suppose I should take this time to let you know I opened a 2004 Amber Ridge last night. This wine is our "lady." Elegant and balanced, I find this bottling really shows the silky red fruit, characteristic of the vineyard and of Russian River. If your looking for a feminine KB Pinot, this is it!
KB Flowing!
