"I wasnât sure 'infusive' was an actual word when I wrote it down after tasting this astonishing Pinot Noir made by Ross Cobb. In fact, it is a word: 'Having the power or quality of infusion,' according to my musty old two-volume Websterâs. This comes from a foggy, shady site planted on sandy Goldridge soil, not far from Sebastopolâand the wine does seem to infuse the senses with an aromatic fog that you can almost walk around in, noting a spray of juniper, a lattice full of roses, the cool moisture of the soil. Thereâs a tightness to the structure that will reward aging, but the impression is one of inner strength rather than weight. (310 cases)"
