Crossbarn Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 Review
Paul Hobbs came to wine through his father. In a farm family, he was one of eleven children and the one who would follow in his father's footsteps realizing a love for wine grapes and wine. In 1991, he established Paul Hobbs winery and with that success launched Crossbarn, in tribute to his childhood. Speaking of childhood, this Sonoma Cab is a success in its youth. The nose is bright berries and the palate is calm and fruit-forward with silky tannins. It’s a great, juicy, almost playful Cab that would please many palates.
