Obelisco Estate is based in Woodinville, near Seattle, but its 30-acre vineyard is in Red Mountain in Eastern Washington. The estate was founded in 2004 by Doug Long, a veteran grape grower and wine entrepreneur who, with his brothers, planted vineyards in Napa Valley in 1971. In 1981 they started David Arthur in Napa, which was named Winery of the Decade in 2000 by Wine Spectator. Obelisco’s first vintage was the 2007 and today its winemakers are Peter Hedges and Sara Goedhart. The estate produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Syrah, Chardonnay and Riesling. Obelisco’s wines typically earn ratings in the low 90s from reviewers including Robert Parker and Wine Spectator.
