Note di degustazione
The lushest and most complete of Hobbs's 2020 Cabs is the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard, which Hobbs recalled being picked on September 26. It's rich and cedary (aged in 88% new French oak) but loaded with plums and blackberries. Full-bodied and plush, it finishes with a soft dusting of cocoa powder-like tannins.

The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard is more lifted and perfumed, with both red and blue fruits mixed with candied violets, chocolate, and smoked tobacco. This medium to full-bodied, focused, elegant 2020 has ripe tannins, terrific overall balance, and outstanding length.
The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard is a rich, bombastic Cabernet. Inky dark fruit, sage, chocolate, menthol and sweet spice are all dialed up. Potent tannins - typical of this site - are further intensified by the unique attributes of the year. All things considered, this is a strong showing for the vintage.
