Jeff Cohn Cellars

Jeff Cohn Cellars is a boutique winery located in Windsor, California, with a focus on producing Rhone-centric wines and single-vineyard Zinfandels. Founded by Jeff Cohn in 1996, the winery has evolved into a family-run operation, with his wife Alexandra joining him as a partner. The winemaking philosophy is centered around the principles of organic and sustainable farming practices, which Jeff believes produce better fruit. His approach to winemaking involves hand-sorting and whole-cluster fermentation for reds, while whites are whole-cluster pressed using the saignee technique. Large format barrels, concrete tanks, and a terra-cotta amphora are used in the aging process, with minimal racking and topping to preserve the freshness of the fruit. The winery's tasting experience is available by appointment only on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 10:30 AM, 12:30 PM, or 2:30 PM. The Cohn Zone, as described on their website, appears to be an invitation for visitors to join them in the vineyards and share in their passion for winemaking. Jeff's background as a Rhone-centric vintner is evident through his collaborations with notable Rhone Valley winemakers, including Yves Cuilleron, Yves Gangloff, and Francois Villard. The winery's location at Grand Cru Custom Crush in Windsor allows for a unique blend of traditional techniques and modern approaches to winemaking.
