An amazingly lush texture and impressively deep fruit and spice flavors in this jaw-dropping example of how good a wine from the troubled 2022 vintage can be. Saturated in blueberries, dried cherries, dark chocolate, and blackcurrants. So layered, complex, velvety and long. The lingering finish echoes generous fruit and subtle but intriguing oak spices from 83% new French barrels. Drinkable now, but best from 2030. ~96 James Suckling

A delicious, layered, chocolate- and cherry-scented wine that entices you from the first sniff and pulls you through a rich palate and a lingering finish. So luscious, balanced, vivid and deep, showing the silky tannins and cool fruit notes of this southern Napa district. Contains 6% petit verdot, 2% cabernet franc and 4% merlot. Aged in 53% new French oak. Drinkable now, but best from 2030. ~96 PinotReport

This Cabernet Sauvignon, with 2% Cabernet Franc, was aged for 20 months in 53% new French oak barrels. In 2022, savoury spices abound in this red- and black-fruited wine from Paul Hobbs's Coombsville estate. Leather, violets, and loamy earth mingle with vibrant currant fruit. Medium-bodied with crunchy tannins, it unfolds through notes of cool, wet slate, sagebrush, and underbrush, leading to a refined and expressive finish. ~94 Decanter

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville includes 6% Petit Verdot—"the most PV I've ever used," said Paul Hobbs—and 3% each Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Aged in 50% new French oak, the nose easily blends black cherries and cassis with mere hints of cedar and vanilla. In the mouth, the wine is full-bodied and broad-shouldered but supple. Loaded with dark fruit, the texture just turns the slightest bit coarse on the finish, like so many wines from the vintage. It's still excellent and a reasonable value in the context of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. ~93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
