Paul Hobbs Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

BN#262774

Paul Hobbs

Our Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon derives substantial depth and breadth of character from the diverse terroirs represented by its superb source vineyards. An alluring nose, abundant with cassis, white pepper and tobacco leaf, prepares the senses for the massive, concentrated flavors of blackberry, graphite and bittersweet cocoa that explode over a velvety palate, Ripe, supple, well-integrated tannins complement notes of cedar and toast on the finish.

Wine Spectator

Pure, rich and concentrated, this is flamboyant, offering depth, range of flavor, structure and depth. The currant and toasty oak flavors are intense and focused without being overdone.

Score: 92-94. —James Laube, 2007.

Wine Advocate

The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa offers plenty of blackberry and black currant fruit intermixed with licorice, smoke, and earthy undertones. It is ideal for consuming over the next decade.

Score: 90. —Robert Parker, December 2008.
