Dog House CA 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon

The “Checkers’ Cab” really didn’t do it for either of us. Description had the word “oak” in it so immediately we had to try it. (I’m a big “oak” fan in the wines…love that flavor) Anyway, we let the wine sit for awhile before drinking just to allow for proper breathing. Gave it a pour, a good swirl and things started off ok. Smell was good but taste, not so much. Ended up drinking a half a glass each and then decided to use the rest of this bottle of wine as a “wood chip soaker” or for a “wine reduction sauce.” (which worked great) This wine unfortunately ended up in our “dog house.”
