2018 Cobb Coastlands Old Firs Block Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir USA

Just three miles from the Pacific, the vineyard’s marine-influenced terroir and old vines contribute to a wine of striking complexity. The wine's layered character, driven by age-worthy structure and a distinct coastal freshness, promises excellent cellaring potential.
