Crossbarn by Paul Hobbs Description
Displaying a concentrated garnet hue, the wine opens with aromas of mulberry and blackberry interwoven with graphite, tobacco leaf, and a touch of espresso bean. The palate is plush and powerful, exhibiting notes of cassis and black plum complemented by hints of toffee and cacao nibs, adding depth and weight through the midpalate. Richly textured and elegantly balanced with well-integrated tannins and focused acidity following through to a seamless and refined finish.
James Suckling: 94 Points
A juicy and flavorful red with real Napa character from vineyards in Calistoga and Coombsville. Medium-bodied with juicy fruit and a flavorful finish. Currant and hints of mint. But reserved and focused. Shows tension. Drink or hold.
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
An alluring red, with a menthol note out front, followed by a slow-moving core of boysenberry and blackberry reduction flavors. Shows ample anise and bramble through the grippy, toasty finish, where the menthol note takes an encore.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
Blended from Coombsville and Calistoga fruit, Crossbarn's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is a terrific bargain, made by Paul Hobbs. It's purple-fruited, with scents of cassis, blackberries and blueberries framed by hints of vanilla and cedar on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied and concentrated, with a long, softy dusty finish. With just 8% new French oak—the bulk of the barrels are second and third use—the quality of the fruit really shines through.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
Mouthwatering and flavorful, this satisfying Cabernet Sauvignon greets the palate with flavors of black plum, wet tobacco, and dark hot chocolate. Powdery palate coating tannins enliven a spiced and lengthy, long finish.
Vinous: 91 Points
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is stellar, and also a fine value. A blast of blackberry, spice, lavender, mint, chocolate and dried herbs races across the palate. This deep, ample Cabernet Sauvignon from Paul Hobbs hits all the right notes. Today, it is supremely delicious.
