Savor Dallas: O’Brien Estate’s Seduction Has Us Hooked

Here’s Barton O’Brien at Savor Dallas’ International Wine Tasting Sunday night.

O’Brien is the owner of O’Brien Estate Winery. He’s holding a bottle of his 2006 Seduction, a Gold Medal winner in the Dallas Morning News Wine Competition, which we profiled here. The fruit in this Meritage is big and bold, in true Napa style, with lots of solid structure and age-worthy acidity.

But check out the bottle. It’s wrapped in see-through silk. Why?

“Because anything in a negligee is fun to undress,” O’Brien told us.

Brilliant, right?

Nice wine. Even better package.
