We've always enjoyed sharing glimpses of our family life alongside news from James Cole Winery. You've heard about our kids growing up, their funny sayings, and how they inspire us to be better every day.

Our daughter Marleigh has blossomed into a remarkable young woman. She's bright, charismatic, and confident. She's still a kid at heart (who maybe leaves the closet light on!), but we wanted to celebrate how much she's grown. So, in 2016, we created "Marls," a Rhône-style blend as vibrant and unique as she is. This wine, like our Marleigh, is bright, bold, and refined.

2020 Marls is ripe and juicy offering engaging aromas of anise, sassafras and hints of peppercorn spice, while on the palate reveals an array of brooding flavors of black jammy fruits, licorice, black tea and sweet tobacco on the finish. A beautifully structured wine with silky integrated tannins.
