Oberon
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Nice smooth cab, went well with an evening of French cuisine.

Aug 21st, 2013Nose: Insipid immediately after opening - nothing here save a bit of barnyard, which diminishes. Is she corked? Where are the wine aromas? <-- generally suggests cork taint. With a good bit of swirling and time I find faint dusty black currant bud. No, not corked, just lame. Some alcohol on the nose, maybe just because I'm inhaling so damn hard trying to find something here.
