375ml. Was expecting this to be bad and couldn’t have been more wrong. Super tight cork preserved this. It was amazing! Dark gold color. Beeswax and honeysuckle dominate. Thick wine, like oil. So good! — 7 days ago

1hr+ decant. Wow! One of my best Paul Hobbs Cabs ever. Dark fruit, Napa sweetness, with excellent terroir. Medium plus depth and finish. Reminds me of Pontet-Canet. — 7 days ago

1hr+ decant and likely needed more. This kept getting better. Dark red color. Classic Napa sweetness. This was dessert in a glass. Dark cherries, subtle cedar, tobacco, a little chocolate, and some integrated vanilla. Deep wine with a long finish. Loved it! — 14 days ago
