CrossBarn Paul Hobbs Pinot Noir 2016
Sonoma Coast, Sonoma County, California, United StatesThe Paul Hobbs style is never overly subtle which is part of its attraction for a particular group of wine lovers. This Sonoma Coast pinot noir is packed full of cherry and strawberry with an excellent dose of spice, but not so boisterous. Underneath there is a mentholatum, celery salt thread that keeps the wine from presenting as a fruit bomb and I like that. Big, soft, rich, and ready, you can pair this with duck, mushrooms, or pork.Tasted: 03 November 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $53.98 | 750ml | private wine shops |
