Reviewed October 2017One of the gems in this stacked lineup, the 2015 Pinot Noir Giusti Ranch is about as big, rich, and concentrated as they come in 2015, which generally yielded more elegant wines. Its deeper ruby/plum color is followed by a powerful, full-flavored 2015 that has beautiful notes of cassis, toasted spice, caramelized cherries and candied violets. Gorgeously rich and textured, with a voluptuous texture, no hard edges and a great finish, it will keep for a decade or more.

James Suckling
Extremely opulent and vivid on the nose with blackberry, blueberry and flower. Full body, velvety tannins and wonderful energy. Vivid and powerful. Real Russian River Pinot with a modern clarity.

Vinous
Always one of the most distinctive wines in the range, the 2015 Pinot Noir Giusti Ranch packs a serious punch. Black cherry, plum, lavender, spice, menthol licorice and dark spices imbue the Giusti with real personality and class. The 2015 has ample broad shoulders and tons of personality, all in a decidedly dark, powerful style. (AG) 93+

Wine Spectator
Dark, rich and vivid, with anise-shaded blackberry, licorice, berry pie, sweet plum and cherry notes that coat the palate and fan out gracefully. Has the substance and drive to further excite and reward. (JL)
Notes
Drawn from Giusti Ranch in the Russian River Valley, this bottling belongs to Kosta Browne's vineyard-designate Pinot Noir program. The 2015 vintage reflects the winery's focus on site-specific expressions from leading California vineyards.
