Don't be fooled by the Columbia Valley label. This is 97% Obelisco Cabernet from Red Mountain, finished off with a pinch of Southwind Malbec. The aromas immediately grab the attention, with notes of coffee, earth, vanilla, cherry and cassis, with fruit intertwining with barrel. The flavors bring intensity but also sophistication and the deftness of the vintage. The appellation's structure underlies it all. Best after 2026.  - 92pts Wine Enthusiast
