Tasting Notes
The wine displays a deep purple hue with a complex bouquet of crushed blueberry, boysenberry, black fig, and hints of truffle, tobacco, and rosemary. Subtle notes of gravelly minerality, toasted cedar, and baking spices add depth and tension to the palate. The tannins are fine and dusty, framed by firm acidity, creating a balanced, textured, and vibrant profile. Flavors of açaí, blackberry, and blueberry puree are polished and complemented by savory accents and a touch of cast iron, leading to a long, elegant finish. This wine is fresh with hints of eucalyptus and menthol and can be enjoyed now or cellared for up to 2035.
Winemaking notes -
Sourced from various Coombsville sites in the cooler southern end of Napa Valley, this Cabernet reflects a cool-climate, mineral-driven style. The 2019 vintage is a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot, and 2% Merlot. Grapes were hand-sorted at night while cold, fermented in small stainless steel tanks and aged for 18 months in a mix of new and neutral French oak barrels. It is unfined and unfiltered, preserving its natural texture and complexity.
If you don't know Paul, you should. His wines from California and Argentina and now New York and France are extraordinary. Paul is one of the most sought-after winemakers on three continents. He's one of the smartest guys in the business and we are proud to say that we have been supporters and friends since he and we started our businesses at roughly the same time.
Stage Left was the first restaurant on the East Coast to serve Paul's wine and we remain the only venue where Paul hosts a dinner every year. Each year it is the most comprehensive tasting of Hobbs wines offered anywhere. And every year, we are all blown away by the depth and breadth of this man's talent.
