As Hobbs himself notes, he was given first choice of the blocks in Andy Beckstoffer’s famous ‘Grand Cru’ site in western St Helena. The Dr Crane continues to be the most dominant of the lineup of thoroughbreds in Hobbs’ Cabernet portfolio with its array of flavors that will dazzle fans of Napa Valley at its most expressive. There’s nothing subtle about this beauty which features a lovely voluptuousness of texture and pure black band blue berry flavors.. Explosive and immensely satisfying. Decant now or hold in the cellar 5+ years.
