Tinta Barroca
Filter
Tinta Barroca is a red grape type hailing from the northern area of Portugal called the Douro Valley. Tinta Barroca has a very high sugar and alcohol content and is most commonly used to make Port wines. Tinta Barroca will be most commonly found as a blending component, which is responsible for most Portuguese complex blends. Tinta Barroca can be found as a single variety wine, mostly all in South Africa, and has become a popular wine style of the Western Cape. Tinta Barroca is a high yielding crop, which makes it a popular choice for growers, but not necessary a top choice for producers. Tinta Barroca is ranked third in the Douro for the most widely planted because producers would rather use Tempranillo or even Touriga Franca in their wines, which are ranked second and first as most widely planted, respectively. Tinta Barroca is susceptible in hot weather, where the berries will shrivel and shrink. Because of this, Tinta Barroca is planted on the higher sides of the Douro Valley where the air is cooler and shaded from the heat of sunshine.

The estate Cabernet Sauvignon is grown primarily along the southwest ridge of the vineyard. The vines produce small berries with bountiful flavor, concentration and intensity, but also a good degree of finesse, excellent structure and layers of complexity that will continue to develop during extended bottle aging for those who want to cellar and age their wines. The wine is powerful, elegant, full-bodied.

Review:
Another gem is the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Red Mountain Estate, a deep, concentrated, powerful Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon that I suspect will be up there with the legendary wines from this terroir. Beautiful cassis, graphite, lead pencil shavings, and damp earth notes give way to a full-bodied effort that has a liqueur of rocks-like minerality, flawless balance, building yet polished tannins, and a great finish. Hide bottles for 4-5 years, and it will evolve for 25-30 years if properly stored. Best After 2026.

Paul Hobbs West Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
Hailing from the newly established West Sonoma Coast AVA,.
Lovely ruby red shades catch the eye, while exotic notes of tart Morello cherry and pungent pine forest swirl with fresh raspberry. Bright, pure fruit carries through on the palate, layered with earthy hints of damp loam and rocky salinity, all backed by the elegant, fine-grained tannins and stylish grip that cool West Sonoma Coast offers at its best.
Review:
A rush of sugared beet, pomegranate, and vanilla-soaked raspberry mingles with a touch of salinity on entry, while a soil component reflects the super-cool climate of the appellation. Power and elegance coexist in this red, which finishes with graphite, peony, basil, and exotic incense.
