"Hobbs consistently makes the finest Cabernet Sauvignon from Carneros and the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Hyde Vineyard is another exceptional example from this source. Notes of tobacco leaf, licorice, spice box, fruitcake, black currants and blueberries soar from the glass of this inky/blue/purple-colored wine. Revealing a voluptuous texture as well as beautiful density, it is almost as provocative and compelling as the 2007 Hyde." Wine Advocate #192, Dec 2010 |
