2015 Obsidian Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon Obsidian Ridge Vineyard

Red Hills Lake County more

5/3/2024 - Josch48 Likes this wine: 95 points

Gorgeously impenetrable blue/black color, amazingly concentrated blue and black fruit aromas, with an ethereal bouquet of Bordeaux cigar box, dried tobacco, and graphite
The silky, fully integrated sweet blueberry and blackberry flavors persist throughout the entire palate, with a finish that does not finish. The medium-heavy mouthfeel is luxurious and elegant, resplendent with a sophisticated yet easily approachable and fully extracted, almost lugubrious delivery of heady fruit compote in silvery liquid form. This high altitude Sonoma Mayacamas Mountain beauty is easily worthy of a two to theee times price point inflation.

This continues to drink well and has blossomed over time. Complexity is now showing with chocolate, tobacco, cherries, plums and a hint of spice. Firm tannins and good structure.

Fruit forward. Strawberry and black berries, napa currant and darker fruit doesn’t seem to come out after 5 hour decant. Might be worth a hold but I don’t see it long term transformed.

Just delicious. Fruity; firm tannins; lovely long finish. No cloying glycerin that you often get with a California Cabernet.) With this, we will have consumed all four bottles in our cellar. No self control. We purchased them at a discount last year at an Ovation Dinner at the Stage in Honolulu. (Sommelier Sky Cameron never gets it wrong.) We wish we had more to see how time impacts this gem. So off we go to find more.

2/3/2024 - La Cave d'Argent wrote: 88 points

This opaque crimson wine is a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Malbec, 3% Petite Sirah, 2% Petit Verdot and 2% Syrah, aged for 15 months in Hungarian Kádár Tokaj barrels (40% new). Tasted over a three-hour period from a bottle that had been Vinturi-decanted, it fully blossoms after the first hour in carafe to reveal an aromatic profile of Luxardo cherries, black currants, bittersweet chocolate, bark and mulling spices. Full-bodied, fresh and with well-integrated alcohol (14.5%), it delivers flavors commensurate with the nose, buttressed with an abundance of wood and chewy tannins. Dense but astringent on the mid-palate, it moves on to a lengthy but mouth-puckering finish. Although it does not have the pedigree of more esteemed North Coast offerings (such as those from Napa or Sonoma), this is a wine that could very well provide an upside surprise with cellaring, assuming that the tannins and oak can integrate. Under such circumstances, a higher score will be warranted. Drink 2026-2036.

Vibrant nose, that isn't on display on the palate. However, the harmony that is there is enjoyable. The acidity at the end should settle out with bottle age. I'm now a fan and need to get more to test my assumptions.

On the nose lots of spicy, earthyness and dark fruits. On the palate lots of dark fruits, earthyness and spice. Medium tannin, spice that lingers and a long finish. Very bold and big, not as overextracted as most Napa wines though, this one has an elegance to it.
