Paul Hobbs Winery 2009 Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard (St. Helena) Napa Valley - California

Availability: Limited
Cost: $180-200
Alcohol: 15.2%
Date Tasted: March 1st, 2012

Tasting Notes: Dense, complex and focused to the nth degree, this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon single vineyard release nears perfection. Aged in 100% new oak for 20 months, the wine seems to have soaked-up every once of character it could extract from the barrel and blended it, effortlessly, with the naturally endowed spectrum of dark fruit and earth flavours bestowed upon the Beckstoffer Dr, Crane Vineyard fruit. A special occasion wine for the celebration you're expecting sometime in 2014 when this wine will start to come into its own. Drink 2014-2022+.
