Obsidian Estate Pinot Noir Poseidon's Vineyard reflects the elegance and depth of Pinot Noir from one of Napa Valley's most esteemed vineyards. This wine presents a complex array of red cherry, raspberry, and subtle earthy notes, with a silky texture and refined tannins that speak to its meticulous winemaking process. It pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes, from duck to mushroom risotto, highlighting the varietal's versatility and the unique expression of Poseidon's Vineyard.
From a single block with particularly gravelly soils on their Carneros estate, Poseidon's Pinot Noir is aged in 40% new Hungarian oak for 8 months. That oak gives the wine a touch of spice – cloves, nutmeg, black pepper – along with a meaty texture and bright, ripe berries, maraschino cherries, raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries, all lifted by high acidity.
