Second label of Paul Hobbs. Medium-bodied cab with a classic Napa Cab flavor profile. Expressve nose of dark fruit. On the palate, much of the same, with jammy and dusty characteristics as well. Medium finish. Not very tannic. Easy drinking now, especially paired with steaks. Basically, this scratches the Napa cab itch, but falls short of outstanding. $40 is not great QPR.

Plummy, medium to full bodied, very easy to drink wine! Enjoyable in every sense. Bravo!

So so effort by Paul Hobbs' second label. Decent fruit with berry and cherry flavor, but not much depth. At $30+ there are probably better values.
