2018 Paul Hobbs "Katherine Lindsay Estate" Russian River Valley Pinot Noir (1.5L)

“The flagship release, the 2018 Pinot Noir Katherine Lindsay Estate comes from the Russian River Valley and saw 14% stems and 15 months in 53% new French oak. Medium ruby, with notes of raspberries, spice box, dried cherries, and assorted flowery incense and tea notes, it's wonderfully complex and medium to full-bodied, with seamless tannins and a great finish. Despite coming from the Russian River, it almost has a Sonoma Coast-like style in its perfumed aromatics and beautiful elegance.” (05/2020)

“The 2018 Pinot Noir Katherine Lindsay Estate is a gorgeous wine. It has scents of fresh cranberries, blackberries and oolong tea leaves with touches of dried violets and citrus peel. Medium-bodied, it's surprisingly concentrated in the mouth, packed with perfumed fruits and wrapped in a silky frame, finishing very long. (EB)” (07/2020)

“This is a dense, layered pinot with attractive richness and spiciness. Lightly chewy tannins. Rich and structured.” (01/2020)

“The 2018 Pinot Noir Katherine Lindsay Estate is fragrant and light on its feet. Rose petal, blood orange, raspberry, mint and dried flowers are some of the notes that are woven together in this delicate, understated Russian River Pinot from Paul Hobbs. (AG)” (01/2020)

“Pure, powerful and savory, with intense hot stone notes to the dried berry, cherry and cooking spice flavors. The tensile finish features slate and flint accents. (KM)” (10/2020)
