Cobden Wini is the culmination of an effort involving family, friends, long days, longer nights, lots of college debt, and plenty of fun along the way. The brand name is a tribute to my parents, Christopher Cobden Davis and Mary Winifred Davis, without whom none of this would exist (including myself). Their support and encouragement enabled me to leave Maryland and head west to take a chance on a dream. Cobden Wini is the ultimate realization of that dream. So grab a glass, break out the corkscrew, and enjoy!

Winemaker Mark Davis has always had a soft spot for Cabernet Franc. After graduating from UC Davis, he made a point of seeking out Napa Valley expressions of the variety wherever he could. When grown in the right setting, Cab Franc can produce beautifully nuanced, captivating wines—and Oakville’s Old Federal Vineyard is one of those special places. In 2022, we were fortunate to source fruit from this site once again. The result is a wine that’s silky and smooth, bursting with fruit-driven aromatics and subtle floral notes. The finish is exceptionally long, with velvety tannins that provide a complete, elegant structure. Another standout expression from the legendary Old Federal Vineyard.

Due to the incredible support of loyal customers such as yourself, our wines have been selling out quickly. Because of this, we have decided to launch a club that will allow you priority access to each of our wines. Members of Cobden Wini will receive two allocations per year, as well as first access to all new releases, library selections, large formats, and member-only wines.  Members also get exclusive deals throughout the year and special gifts!
