Cobb Riesling Vonarburg Vineyard 2018 (91 JD)
“Exotic flowers, lime, mints, and citrus notes all emerge from the 2018 Riesling Vonarburg Vineyard, and it’s another impeccably made, balanced, refreshing wine from this team that has a chiseled, focused style. It’s good today yet I suspect will cruise for over a decade in the cellar.”

In 1989, David Cobb planted the Coastlands vineyard that became well known through wines made by Hirsch and Williams Selyem. Though the original plan for Coastlands was simply to sell grapes to a few artisan vintners, David's son Ross had a different vision for the exceptional fruit. In 2001, Ross crafted 130 cases of Cobb Wines’ inaugural Coastlands Vineyard pinot noir. Since then, Ross has taken the helm and Cobb Wines has evolved to include four other hand-tended, independently owned vineyards on the Sonoma Coast. Though these vineyards share certain essential Sonoma Coast characteristics, they each have individual soil types, subtly different microclimates, and unique combinations of pinot noir selections. Ross's wines have become heralded the country over as benchmarks for elegance and nuance from the Sonoma Coast.
