dry and impeccably well-balanced finale

beautifully textured flavors underpinned by solid but ripe tannins and the same floral note that many of these '95s display

Several recent bottles of the 2017 have all been sublime

Densely packed but also lithe in character

balanced and ever-so-mildly austere finish

Paul Hobbs, Nathan Coombs Estate Cabernet Sauvignon other_regions dry and impeccably well-balanced finaleFrom their own estate, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Nathan Coombs Estate has a little Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot in the blend. This is a beauty with loads of minerality, almost liquefied rock like character, and plenty of spicy red and black currants moving toward blueberry and blackberry. It is rich, shows some licorice, a layered texture and a long, long finish. This is another 20 to 30 year wine, as are all of these 2013s.
