點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2986

Named after the famed black marble-like soils called Obsidian, this fairly priced Cabernet Sauvignon from Lake County, made by Michael Terrien, reveals plenty of potential. Attractive red and black currant fruit intermixed with notions of damp earth, licorice, and spice box are found in this round, juicy, seductive, medium to full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon. It is ideal for drinking over the next 5-6 years.Tel. (707) 255-4929

No question the flavors are right on, erupting in mouthfilling blackberries, cassis, cherries, cola and chocolate, with anise and cinnamon-dusted smoky oak. Yet it feels a little soft and melted, and could use greater structural integrity. Drink now.——S.H.(3/1/2009)—— 89
