Hoopes Vineyard
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
This is a typical Napa fruit bomb with a lot of oak. Very little tertiary character, it's all black fruit and sweet vanilla and a touch is cedar. Not as impressive as I had hoped. A good cab for new drinkers but if you are an old world fan give it a pass

Opaque red color. Sweet cherry, raspberry fruits. Cigar box, chocolate-vanilla swirl. Good pairing with a butter/ rosemary seared strip steak.

Boring - didn’t even finish it was so unappealing

Heavy fruit, lots of good oak. Great bottle, but the (almost) fruit overload takes away from the balance. Worth cellaring for sure.
