95 pts. Wine Enthusiast:

"This seductive wine is one of the first releases from Dan Kosta's new winery. It packs a flavor punch while staying balanced and appetizing. Deep, rich black-fruit flavors and a warm, generous mouthfeel make a great combination in this full-bodied, ripe-tasting and moderately tannic wine. Best from 2025-2032."

93 pts. Wine Spectator:

"Seductive, with dark plum, mulberry and boysenberry coulis notes racing through, infused liberally with dark tea and singed anise. Features a flash of warm earth on the finish. Nicely done. Drink now through 2029. 1,955 cases made."

Dan Kosta, of Kosta Browne wines, has returned as proprietor of another fantastic Pinot Noir producer. After selling Kosta Browne to the Duckhorn folks, Dan took a break from the wine world, then started his own winery called Convene. He snagged his winemaker from his Kosta Browne days to collaborate with him on his new venture. The result is as we would expect - fantastic Pinot Noirs! - Wine Factor
