Lot 404 Details
PAUL HOBBS CABERNET SAUVIGNON BECKSTOFFER TO KALON VINEYARD 2007

Oakville, Napa Valley.
u. 1 x bn. 2 x scuffed labels.

From the amazing Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard, Hobbs’ 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon is a slightly more opulent, broader, savory effort that comes close to the perfect 2002. The 2007 has more noticeable tannin than the 2002 did at the same stage as well as more obvious minerality, but notes of graphite, black currant liqueur, licorice, cedar, and spice box are found in this full-bodied, multidimensional, fabulously concentrated wine. It was aged in 100% new Taransaud French oak barrels. Give it 5-6 years of cellaring, and drink it over the following three decades. December 2009 Drink: 2014-2044 WA 98+
