Nils Venge Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon
Oakville, Napa Valley, California, USA
Solid Napa cab. Mellow tannins and of course a lot of fruit.

Nice bottle. Nothing fancy, just an enjoyable cab with a ribeye. Very smooth tannins, but not overly complex.

Back to something new, first time with Nils Venge.
Wanted to try his wines since Kirk Venge is one of my favorite wine makers.
Yikes Parker only gave it an 87? I admit its not too complex or a big wine like Kirks, but 87?🤔 thats just wrong,
$40.00 on winebid was a steal considering its $75.00 from the winery

Had this at a blind wine tasting and it was quite good. I had more than Kylah and liked it very much. What stood out to me was dry a d leathery. However we want to rate it again and re-score when we drink a bottle. Looking forward to that a lot!
