Vibrant flavors of cherry, cassis, and dried cranberry integrate seamlessly with hints of dried herbs and star anise. Polished tannins create a broad, textured palate, while oyster shell minerality lends a sophisticated, savory edge. The finish is long and lingering, balancing elegance with youthful energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlend: 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 4% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e96 PinotReport\u003cbr\u003eA delicious, layered, chocolate- and cherry-scented wine that entices you from the first sniff and pulls you through a rich palate and a lingering finish.

In 2022, savoury spices abound in this red- and black-fruited wine from Paul Hobbs's Coombsville estate. Leather, violets, and loamy earth mingle with vibrant currant fruit. Medium-bodied with crunchy tannins, it unfolds through notes of cool, wet slate, sagebrush, and underbrush, leading to a refined and expressive finish.\u003cbr\u003e93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003cbr\u003eThe 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville includes 6% Petit Verdot—\"the most PV I've ever used,\" said Paul Hobbs—and 3% each Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Aged in 50% new French oak, the nose easily blends black cherries and cassis with mere hints of cedar and vanilla. In the mouth, the wine is full-bodied and broad-shouldered but supple. Loaded with dark fruit, the texture just turns the slightest bit coarse on the finish, like so many wines from the vintage. It's still excellent and a reasonable value in the context of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul Hobbs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42975822381280,"sku":"106681","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/paul-hobbs-cabernet-sauvignon-napa-valley.jpg?v=1663888203","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/paul-hobbs-cabernet-sauvignon-napa-valley-2018-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
