Aristocratic Russian River Pinot with stunning mineral precision and haunting floral complexity.
Dark cherry mingles with lavender perfume. Graphite minerality cuts through rich fruit. Sage whispers alongside iron-laced earth tones. Silky texture belies serious structure underneath. Mid-palate shows remarkable depth - layers unfold slowly. Finish stretches endlessly with persistent mineral thread. This 2015 hits peak drinking now but holds another decade easily. Classic cool-climate elegance meets Hobbs' technical mastery. Outstanding vintage character shines through restrained winemaking approach.
🍷 You crave Burgundy-like complexity but want California sunshine lurking beneath the elegance.
Pairs with: Duck breast with cherry gastrique, Herb-crusted rack of lamb, Wild mushroom risotto, Aged gruyere
