Review Date: 01/2025A 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. Drinkable now, but best from 2030. (JG)

This Cabernet Sauvignon, with 2% Cabernet Franc, was aged for 20 months in 53% new French oak barrels. 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. (JC)

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon (Coombsville) is a terrific wine in this vintage. It shows more forward fruit and less Coombsville savoriness than most years, but that is to be expected in 2022. Black cherry, plum, graphite, leather and spice are front and center. Clean mineral notes appear to frame the finish. The 2022 includes 7% Petit Verdot, which lends freshness. (AG)
