Here is some press on the wines.....
2010 Paul Hobbs Russian River Valley Chardonnay
The 2010 Chardonnay is rich, creamy and expressive. Lemon, green pears, white flowers and crushed rocks all take shape in this deeply expressive, gorgeous wine. First and foremost, the 2010 stands out for its nuance and class. This is a great showing from the straight Russian River bottling, not to mention a textbook wine for the appellation. The 2010 spent ten months in oak (45% new) and two months in steel. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2018.
Rated 90/100 The Wine Advocate
2011 Paul Hobbs Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
A delicious, entry-level wine, the 2011 Pinot Noir is also a great example of the year. Sweet floral notes, red berries, mint and anise are some of the notes that woven together in the glass in this expressive and beautiful wine. Juicy and radiant, the 2011 captures the very best qualities of Sonoma Pinot Noir in this cold vintage. It is a terrific showing. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2021.

2010 Paul Hobbs Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley wraps around the palate with mocha, chocolate, violets and new leather. Despite its explosive personality, the straight Napa Valley bottling is pretty approachable for the vintage. I especially like the focus of the finish. In 2010, the Cabernet Sauvignon includes 6% Cabernet Franc. The vineyard sources are State Lane, Stagecoach and Mast. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025.
Rated 92+/100 The Wine Advocate
