Excellent complexity of blackcurrant, lead pencil and oyster. Some redwood and bark. Full to medium body with wonderfully crafted tannins that run the length of the wine with so much subtle and complex character of graphite and fruit. Structured and classic. Bordeaux blend with cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot and petit verdot. Drink in 2026 onwards.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville (83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot, and 4% Merlot) is another deep purple-hued effort from Hobbs that has sensational purity in its cassis and juicy blackberry fruits. These are supported by textbook notes of graphite, freshly sharpened pencils, and spring flowers. Playing in the medium to full-bodied end of the spectrum, with ultra-fine tannins, a seamless, elegant texture, and outstanding length, this will compete with wine two to three times the price. It will evolve for 15-20 years.

With concentration and density, this Cabernet Sauvignon from the internationally known Paul Hobbs, spins with flavors of dried tobacco, resinous woods, and a blend of sweet, warmed spices on dark fruits. Firm tannins and balanced acidity bring impressive persistence housed in a well balanced frame.

Dense and ripe but reserved in feel, with a cool cast iron note that adds a touch of restraint to the mix of blackberry and black currant preserve flavors. Juicy, with judicious toast through the tobacco and roasted alder–accented finish. Best from 2026 through 2036. 5,000 cases made.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon (Coombsville) is fabulous. Rich, dark and super-expressive, the 2021 captures all the savory intensity of Coombsville. Dried herbs, leather, tobacco, chocolate, incense and cloves meld into a core of blackberry jam. Pretty floral notes and bright acids liven up the finish. Readers will find a dense, opulent Cabernet Sauvignon that delivers the goods.

Blended from lots that didn't make the grade to be in the single-vineyard wine, Hobbs's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville is 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, with small portions of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Merlot. Matured in about 50% new French oak, it offers up hints of crushed stone and pencil shavings, plus scents of blueberries, cassis, loam and vanilla. It's medium to full-bodied and reasonably concentrated, with intense flavors and a velvety feel on the lingering finish. As far as Napa Cabs go, it's even a respectable value.
