Country: US / California
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Winery: Obsidian Ridge / Obsidian Ridge Vineyard
This is the best Obsidian Cab since the 2002, and for similar reasons. It was a good vintage for Cabernet. The wine is rich and peppery and lush in black currant flavors, with beautifully sculpted, ripe tannins. Provides more evidence that this Red Hills of Lake County appellation has enormous potential for Cabernet.
