Paul Hobbs Pinot Noir Katherine Lindsay Vineyard 2018
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 Pinot Noir Katherine Lindsay Vineyard 2018 is a distinguished wine from California's Russian River Valley, showcasing the unique terroir of the estate named after the founder's ancestor. This Pinot Noir benefits from the region's Goldridge sandy loam and cooling fog, which contribute to its refined character. The 2018 vintage offers a harmonious profile of black cherry, raspberry, and hints of rose and cola, accentuated by earthy notes reminiscent of forest floor. It features silky tannins balanced by bright acidity, resulting in an elegant wine that is enjoyable now yet possesses the potential for further development. The wine is aged for approximately 15 months in French oak, with about 45-60% of the barrels being new.
