Note di degustazione
Pale ruby, the 2008 Pinot Noir Diane Cobb Coastlands Vineyard is fully mature and very pretty, with alluring notes of pipe tobacco, iron shavings, woodsmoke, tea leaves and sweet blackberries. The light-bodied palate is surprisingly concentrated, with mineral-laced fruits in a dusty, seamless frame, and it finishes long and detailed.

Last week, a bottle of Ross Cobb's 2008 Pinot Noir Diane Cobb: Coastland's Vineyard was striking. I loved the weightless fruit and the wine's expressive, perfumed personality. The signs of smoke taint, such an issue in this vintage, weren't at all obvious or present, although I did note that the wine shut down with air, so perhaps the two are connected.
Bright ruby. Compelling aromas of red berry preserves, smoky minerality, cocoa powder and white pepper, with a sexy note of incense in the background. Dense but tightly coiled, with zesty acidity giving shape and grip to the raspberry, rose and spicecake flavors. A wine of noteworthy finesse as well as power, finishing with excellent cut. This 1.5 acre vineyard is planted to 22 different clones, all on their own roots.
