MAY 2024 Collection

Obsidian Ridge ‘Half Mile’

  • -Cabernet Sauvignon

    -Red Hills Lake County, CA

    -2019

  • “‘Half Mile’ is a winemaker blend of select barrels to showcase the power and richness of volcanic mountain fruit. Cabernet Sauvignon is the core, with loads of dark chocolate seamed with herbs and spice. Petit Verdot provides the intense structure and color that distinguish this wine, along with a ribbon of lavender and wild black plum flavors. Petite Sirah brings freshness and roundness that give the wine a smooth and supple texture, and a touch of black licorice. Beautifully integrated oak notes of star anise, clove and nutmeg combine to create harmony and refinement.” -Alex Beloz, Winemaker

Silenus

  • -Cabernet Sauvignon

    -Silenus Estate Vineyard, Oak Knoll District, Napa Valley, CA

  • This wine has a dark, inky, rich, ruby red color. The intense aromatics of this wine showcase flavors of juicy currants and black cherries followed by delicate notes of baking spices. The palate leads with flavors of perfectly ripened black mission fig, black berries and pleasant secondary tones of toasty oak lingering on the finish. This is a big and bold full-bodied wine; it pairs perfectly with a filet mignon or your choice cut of steak. —Silenus Winery
