Always true to its feminine name, the 2018 Emmaline Ann Pinot Noir is a textbook showing of the most understated and seductive wine in the Cobb roster. The nose is filled with both fresh and dried flowers, sewn together with its classic pomegranate and bing cherry fruit profile. The palate is long and clean with a touch more zing than I have found in past vintages. A refreshing note of tangerine zest carries the finish beautifully. Drinking Window 2021 - 2038. ...

The 2018 Pinot Noir Emmaline Ann Vineyard comes from vines planted in 1998 and is usually made with a higher proportion of whole cluster than other wines in the Cobb portfolio, around 40% to 60% depending on vintage. Pale, vibrant ruby in color, its scents of ripe cranberries and blood orange peel are pure and intense, with tones of earth and Angostura bitters. The palate is grainy and fresh with full, spicy flavors and a long, layered finish. It's a very pure, detailed expression of Emmaline Ann.

The 2018 Pinot Noir Emmaline-Ann Vineyard is bright and effusive, with striking aromatic presence to match its gracious, mid-weight personality. There is a feeling of transparency in the 2018 that is utterly beguiling. Crushed red berry, orange zest, white pepper and crushed rocks are all finely delineated. A healthy dollop of whole clusters (40%) adds a brilliant upper register.

From a vineyard is situated roughly 700 feet elevation on a west-facing, cool site. the 2018 Pinot Noir Emmaline Ann Vineyard is ripe with wild strawberry, cinnamon spice, pine, and wet stone. The palate is fresh with crunchy red fruit, pomegranate, forest floor and tea leaf. The palate is medium-bodied and ripe up front, with fine tannins and fresh acid.
Winery
Graceful and thought-provoking, this wine seems to reflect the surroundings of Emmaline Ann Vineyard, with notes of raspberry and cherry fruit, secondary aromas of redwood forest, sweet sage, wild cherry and mushrooms, as well as a hint of ruby red grapefruit. On the palate, zesty orange and tart pomegranate notes are underscored by a racy acidity that carries the red berry flavors to an elegant finish.

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is one of the planet's most widely grown and enjoyed grape varietals, and thanks to the popularity of the key wines it is associated with – Burgundy and Champagne – it has successfully spread from its native home in France to much of the wine producing world. Pinot Noir means 'black pine' in French, and this refers to the extremely dark, inky color of the fruit, and the fact that it grows in conical bunches, resembling a large pine cone. It has long been revered for its wide range of refreshing, summery flavors, and the fact that it produces red wines of a beautiful garnet color and light body. More recently, sparkling wines made exclusively with Pinot Noir have been extremely popular, and the orchard notes found in the fizzy 'blanc des noirs' wines mark out just how versatile this grape varietal really is. Despite being notoriously difficult to grow, it isn't hard to see why this grape is now found in vineyards all over the world, as it is synonymous with romance and decadence, quality and fantastic flavor

Region: California

When it comes to New World wine regions, it is widely agreed that many of the finest wines are grown and produced in California. The long stretches of coastline and the valleys and mountainsides which come off them are ideal areas for vine cultivation, and for over a century now, wineries have found a perfect home in the hot, dry state, with many of the wines produced here going on to reach world class status. The state is greatly helped by the brisk oceanic winds which cool the otherwise hot and dry vineyards, which hold mineral rich soils covering vast areas and featuring many established wineries. The state is split into four main regions, the largest by far being the central valley which stretches over three hundred miles in length.

Country: United States

Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.
