Paul Hobbs 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Las Piedras

Robert Parker 95+ Points: “Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and displaying a deep garnet-purple color, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard opens with pronounced crème de cassis, mocha, black forest cake and cloves over lavender, bay leaf, and menthol nuances. Full-bodied, concentrated and seductive, it has a gorgeous velvety texture and plenty of freshness lifting the opulent flavors, finishing with a spices and herbs kick.”

Vinous 96 Points: “The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard is shaping up to be another beauty from Paul Hobbs. Rich and beautifully layered in the glass – with a compelling interplay of fruit and structure – the 2014 is wonderfully complete, even at this early stage. I especially admire the intensely mineral/savory drive that is such a central part of what Las Piedras is all about.”
