Obsidian Ridge 2021 Volcanic Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Winemaker Notes

This Estate Cabernet is the signature wine of Obsidian Ridge 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.

Blend: 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Malbec, 3% Petite Sirah, 2% Petit Verdot, 2% Syrah

Critical Acclaim

94pts Wine Enthusiast
This wine is dense opulent deep purple with aromas of unripe blackberry, blueberry, olallieberry, fresh bay leaf, vanilla scented potpourri on the nose. The midpalate is black olive, green olive, rosemary, orange zest, transmitting into ripe black fruit, dried tobacco leaves and salted truffle chocolate.
