Our Story

Five generations
of the same land.

In 1875, Benjamin R. Cohn planted the first vines on this Sonoma County property. What began as a family farming operation has grown into one of the region's most respected estates — still owned and operated by the same family.

Our vineyards sit above the fog line, where well-drained gravel soils and cool Pacific breezes produce fruit with intensity and balance. Every bottle carries the character of this specific place — the terroir we've studied, protected, and refined for over 150 years.
