  Had with Thanksgiving dinner 2022. Was perfect. Big and bold for a pinot noir, more in the style of Meiomi than a red Burgundy. Not too dry or tannic and not too fruity either. A really well balanced palette and nose. Would have it again.

  These wines in the value range for Paul Hobbs so entirely outperform their price point!

  PnP, but opened during the meal, so give it some air. Aromas of red fruits and a touch of cola. The medium plus bodied palate showed red fruits, dark red fruits and berries, then a dose of spice and pepper on the medium plus finish. Nicely juicy acidity to keep the wine lively, and well integrated tannins. Should hold for a couple of years.
  Had alongside a Kosta Browne Russian River Valley 2010: This wine showed livelier, and a bit fruitier, while the KB was more savoury, with a heavier mouthfeel. L preferred this Hobbs, I preferred the KB.
