Paul Hobbs Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville 2021

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.

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.

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 car of blackberry jam. Pretty floral notes and bright acids liven up the finish. Reader will find a dense, opulent Cabernet Sauvignon that deliver the goods.

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.
