CrossBarn Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

Sweet fruit, supple mouthfeel and ready to drink.

This wine has a dark hue and displays plenty of raspberry, cranberry and black cherry flavors, with a big earthy note and moderate spice - clove and nutmeg. Red plums, cherries and raspberries adorn the palate, with a nice, tart edge and a well-defined tannic structure joined by a mouth-watering acidity. It comes on bold at 14.1% abv - not something I look for in Pinot - but it settles down quickly and finishes elegantly, with fruit lingering quite a while.

Lovely Memorial Day wine

This would be an excellent simple wine if the abv was not overblown. Full nose but the palate is subdued. #paulhobbs #sonomacoast #pinotnoir

Classic Sonoma Coast sipping wine. Fairly light but yummy.

High alcohol level Pinot noir. Dark ruby color with plum and bing cherry flavors. Good tannin placement with balanced acidity and a round body. Overblown for food pairing but it’s good by itself.

I really enjoyed this one. Paul Hobbs is one of my favorites and this wine did not disappoint.

Spice and plenty of raspberry and blackberry - kind of jammy. Balanced and rich.

Dark fruit, earthy notes, subtle spice -- more complex than the average California Pinot at this price point.
