Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 93
Significantly tannic but also flavorful enough to pull it off, this full-bodied wine is a good candidate for further aging. It brims with black currant, graphite and black cherry flavors that are vivid but not overblown, achieving good balance and complexity. Aged for 18 months in 40% new Hungarian oak barrels, it should be best from 2026.
Wine Tasting Notes
Obsidian Volcanic Estate Red Hills Lake County Cabernet is the signature wine of Obsidian Vineyard and embodies the complexity and wildness of the site. The structure and intensity of upper blocks is complemented by aromatics and acidity of cooler blocks. The extreme climate, altitude, and volcanics of the site result a wine with distinct volcanic character - intense color, aroma and flavor, with a freshness and minerality that typifies the site.
90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Malbec, 3% Petite Sirah, 2% Petit Verdot, 2% Syrah
Alcohol 14.5%
