Ricochet Cellars

2007 Ricochet Obsidian Cabernet Sauvignon
Production: 70 cases
Release date: February 2010

This CA red wine contains 80% Mt. Veeder clone 337 Cabernet and 20% Calistoga Merlot. 24 months in new and neutral French Oak give this wine lovely character and complexity that reflects the mountain vineyards where it was grown. Cavedale Vineyards sits just above 2000 feet on Mt. Veeder on a hillside covered in mountain sage, which one can detect on the nose, along with hints of anise and dill. This rich, concentrated Cab is complemented by our lush Guarino Napa Merlot. The combination is reminicient of a solid young Bordeaux blend.
