title: Obsidian Ridge 2009 Obsidian Ridge Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Red Hills Lake County)
description: If you're used to soft, ripe Napa Valley Cabernet, this one, grown just over the Lake County border, will strike you as dry and unyielding. The tannins are pronounced, giving it a hard bite. But it's rich and deep in crème de cassis, the sort of wine that seems ageworthy. Take a gamble and put it in your cellar for 6–8 years.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: Obsidian Ridge Vineyard
