Paul Hobbs Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2018

$59.99

New release - 96 pts                                               A great new Pinot Noir release from one of California's most celebrated winemakers Paul Hobbs.  Carefully selected from the winery’s top vineyard sources that are defined by both their proximity to the coast and Russian River to allow cool morning, warm afternoon diurnal swings to develop fruit with purity, richness, and elegance. 94 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "The largest production cuvée is the 2018 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley, which comes from multiple sites and was aged 9 months in 43% new French oak. Readers looking for a great introduction into the wines of the estate can't go wrong here. Medium ruby, it has beautiful aromatics of raspberries, black cherries, and strawberries, loads of spice, violets, and underbrush nuances, medium to full body, good acidity, and a silky, seamless texture. It's beautifully done and well worth seeking out. Drink it any time over the coming 7-8 years."

Loaded red fruit nose. Red fruit, red licorice, earth. Medium bodied. We’ll balanced. Drinks just fine.

Still super young. Literally still tingling on the tongue. Strong fruit nose with long aftertaste. Leave it in the glass for a while or decant for an hour. This is not a delicate or light Pinot. It's full bodied and has lots of dark fruit with a lot of oak Just need several more years to develop, i think
