Best Cabernet Sauvignon over $20
Obelisco 2007 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
(red Mountain, $60)
A first release from this new winery, owned by Doug Long, Paul Kaltinick and Dick Shaw, this amazing Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (with a bit of Merlot and Malbec) is classic Red Mountain with firm yet integrated tannins; a rich cassis, coffee and cigar box nose; and dark fruit and vanilla bean on the palate, making it a lush, deeply satisfying, classic example of Washington Cabernet.
