Today, we are lucky enough to have secured a tiny allocation to offer you from one of the finest wineries in America. We’re talking about the illustrious Paul Hobbs (Robert Mondavi, Opus One and Simi alum) whose own winery has had countless praise heaped upon them from day one, including the rare-air distinction of joining wine royalty in the Robert Parker, Jr. 100-point club.
Paul Hobbs’ winery has built an extraordinary reputation for making the best of the best in Cabernet, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from some of the most exclusive, lavish sites in all of the U.S. Each vintage, Paul seemingly effortlessly manages to get the most out of the Russian River Valley, Sonoma Coast and Napa Valley AVAs making wines that uniquely exemplify each individual terroir.
Because Paul and his brother Matt haven’t been in New Jersey in forever, I figured I’d call over there and bust their chops. “When are you visiting the Garden State?”. “When are you coming out to Napa?” Touche.
We decided to meet in the middle– I don’t mean in Kansas. Instead, I was offered their new release of their Napa Valley Estate Cabernet at a “Nicholas Special Price”. Not too shabby at all.

A solid cabernet with currants and berries, blue fruit and lavender. Medium-to full-bodied, solid and beautiful. Creamy and very long. Give it a year or so. Try after 2021.
92 Points, Antonio Galloni- Vinous
The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is a gorgeous, racy wine that captures all the best the vintage has to offer within its peer group. Juicy red and purplish berry fruit, lavender and mint give the 2017 striking freshness and nuance to match its mid-weight personality. This is such a pretty and accessible wine. I would prefer to drink it over the next decade or so.

At J Vineyards, Nicole is nothing short of a magician, making 30 different skus or more each vintage between her Pinots, Chardonnays, and Sparkling wines. For the vineyard’s flagship Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, up to 100 individual small lots are combined to make this great wine. Somehow, the blend is effortless–a quintessential RRV Pinot that has those soaring aromatics, bright red fruits, clove, and nutmeg spice with perfect balance.
This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.
#24 Wine of the Year (2022), Wine Spectator

“This supple red shows a core of cherry and plum fruit allied to olive, juniper and tobacco notes. Delivers well-integrated tannins and acidic structure, lingering nicely on the finish.”
The 2021 Napa Valley East side Cuvee is an instant classic. From the first whiff to the moment it hits the lips, its clear that this is a fabulously concentrated, serious wine: black in color, and featuring aromas of cassis, cedar and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The mouthfeel is plush and voluptuous with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging.
