Paul Hobbs Coombsville Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

This is the first vintage for this label. In fact, this replaces the 'Napa Valley' label, but since all the wine now comes from the Coombsville AVA (and mostly from their estate), it now carries the Coombsville name. Deep garnet-purple in color, the nose of the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville is redolent of Morello cherries, boysenberries and cassis with hints of lilacs, cinnamon stick and dried herbs. The medium to full-bodied palate has vibrant black fruit flavors with a soft texture and nice tension, finishing with a red fruit lift. Drink date: 2021-2036. Score - 94+.
