Obscura operates in California's South Coast region, where maritime influence and varied microclimates support an expansive palette of white and red varieties. The winery's Grand Bazaar assembles an ambitious blend of twelve white grapes—Kerner, Grüner Veltliner, Vermentino, Vignoles, Müller-Thurgau, Muscat Blanc, Sauvignon Gris, Vidal Blanc, Yellow Muscat, Muscat Ottonel, Savagnin Rosé, and Gewürztraminer—creating a textural composition that spans aromatic, mineral, and stone-fruit registers. Merci, André Jacquinet draws on Garanoir and Regent, lesser-known red varieties that bring structure and dark-fruit character to the South Coast's warm growing season. Wine Enthusiast has rated both releases, with Grand Bazaar earning particular recognition. The winery's willingness to work across unconventional varietals reflects the region's experimental spirit and the creative possibilities within California's diverse terroir.
