Exceptional Pinot Noir as a family tradition.
In 2001, two generations of the Cobb family came together to explore a shared passion for Pinot Noir. David and Diane were pioneers of the far Sonoma Coast when they planted Coastlands Vineyard with their son, Ross in 1989. The convergence of Ross’s winemaking talents and his parents’ development of Coastlands Vineyard led to the creation of Cobb Wines. Ross started in the lab and cellar, but eventually was the head winemaker at Flowers for eight years, and then at Hirsch for several more. Springboard has represented Cobb for almost a decade, and I still remember where I was when he called. Like a teenage girl talking to a pop-star, I was exactly that excited.
