Obisidian Ridge vineyards were planted in 1999 amid red volcanic soils shot with black obsidian, and among abandoned walnut trees, overlooking a dormant volcano. Today, these Red Hills are proving to be the next great frontier in Cabernet Sauvignon.

The Mayacamas Mountain Range defines the axis of great Cabernet: the finest fruit grows on the flanks and ridges of the North Coast’s most distinct geological feature. At the farthest reaches of this range lies Obsidian Ridge, at 2,950 feet above sea level, with slopes of between five and twenty degrees.

Obsidian Ridge follows the Code of Sustainable Winegrowing Practices and are Fish Friendly Farming certified. The Tokaj forests where their barrels are coopered have been sustainably managed since 1769 by decree of the Empress Maria Teresa of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, requiring selective logging and systematic replanting. In their solar powered winery, they follow traditional and natural winemaking practices.
