The Winery
Paul Hobbs Winery
Paul Hobbs Winery was founded in 1991 by its devoted winemaker of the same name who focused on using minimally invasive winemaking techniques to create products true to their varietals. Located in the city of Sebastapol, the winery focuses on single-varietal made from Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Chardonnay from leading vineyards spanning from Sonoma to Napa County.
The 2002 “Beckstoffer To Kalon” Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon is one of an exclusive group of wines to reach 100 points awarded by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. The visual, bouquet and palate characteristics are most remarkable for their striking and dynamic attributes in each unique statement of the wine. Their level of quality has continued as the winery has developed over the years, and Benchmark Wine Group is delighted to share it with you.
Summary
The Paul Hobbs Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard 2018 is a distinguished red wine from California, sourced from the historic Beckstoffer Las Piedras site known for its unique cobbly alluvial soils. Crafted from Clone 4 grapes, this wine is medium to full-bodied, showcasing an intricate blend of black and red fruits, including cassis and plum, alongside hints of spice and mint. The wine is characterized by its firm, grainy tannins and a vibrant acidity that adds freshness. Aged for approximately 20 months in predominantly new French oak, it expresses mineral notes of crushed rocks and graphite, promising complexity and depth. With only 396 cases produced, it stands as a collectible Napa gem meant for long-term aging.
