Kosta Browne

Pinot Noir Obsession in Sonoma Coast

Founded in 1997 by Dan Kosta and Michael Browne, Kosta Browne Winery has become a celebrated name in the world of premium wines. Known for their exceptional Pinot Noir, the winery gained international acclaim when their 2009 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir was awarded Wine Spectator's Wine of the Year in 2011. This prestigious recognition solidified their reputation as one of California's top producers of luxury wines.

Initially, Kosta Browne relied on sourcing high-quality grapes from trusted growers. However, in 2013, they took a significant step by acquiring their first estate vineyard—a 20-acre property in Sonoma Coast. This move allowed them to have greater control over grape quality and winemaking processes. In 2016, they expanded further with the purchase of a 60-acre vineyard in Anderson Valley, a region renowned for its cool climate and ideal conditions for growing Pinot Noir.

Today, Kosta Browne Winery is celebrated for its commitment to crafting small-lot, single-vineyard wines that showcase the unique terroir of California's most prestigious wine regions. Their dedication to sustainability, innovation, and excellence continues to attract wine enthusiasts and collectors worldwide. Whether you're a fan of their award-winning Pinot Noir or exploring their diverse portfolio, Kosta Browne remains a must-try for anyone passionate about fine wines.
