I've found that in wines before. It's from the paraffin on the cork.

So I'm not crazy. Well, at least about that.

2012 Kobalt Cabernet Sauvignon

To be served with Filet Mignon with Bernaise Sauce and grilled asparagus.

Decision made. I'm taking a 2010 Hobel Wine Works Cabernet Sauvignon Engelhard Vineyard and a 2011 Rivers-Marie Cabernet Sauvignon.

Status: offline 		Started with a Balvenie 12 Year Old Double Wood and it doesn't suck . Going to a friends house. Wife made chicken Picatta and I'm bringing a 2013 Epoch Veracity. Lemon and red wine don't make the best pairing so wanted something with power. No idea what my friend will open. He knows I go deep so hopefully he steps up.

Status: offline 		As research for our Portugal trip, we are drinking a 2015 Crasto Duoro, the low end bottling. It is ok with food but otherwise, it tastes like a low end bottling. Way too jammy. I have had some of the better Crastos and they are worth it.
