Wine Gift Set Includes:
- Paul Hobbs Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon
Laced through with beautiful dark blue shades, this wine from Napa's coolest Cabernet-growing region opens with soaring, complex aromatics: brambly blackberry, swirling with red currant, layers over fresh sage and thyme leaves, while dark cacao is edged with graphite. The palate is focused and bright with youthful energy, yet smooth with mouth coating, fine-grained tannins. Oyster-shell minerality adds sophisticated savory notes on a lingering finish. - Gold Gift Box

Tasting Panel
2021: With an attention- getting purple-black hue, this astound- ing red is silky but manages to eke out teeth-grabbing, dusty black-tea tannins. A host of flavors, among them graphite, black raspberry, violets, and Worces- tershire, sends a message of intensity. Earth and soil notes are apparent, sur- rounding a mineral component within the wine's deep core.

James Suckling
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.

James Suckling
2022: A 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. So luscious, balanced, vivid and deep, showing the silky tannins and cool fruit notes of this southern Napa district. Contains 6% petit verdot, 2% cabernet franc and 4% merlot. Aged in 53% new French oak.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
2022: The 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.
