Many unusual tasks await you inOblivion Remastered’smultitude of side quests, such as tracking down bottles of rare wine for a collector. Nerussa is an innkeeper at the Wawnet Inn, and she collects a rare vintage bottle called Shadowbanish Wine, which will appear in sets of two in select forts across Cyrodiil, even before meeting Nerussa.
While it’s possible to begin this quest and have it added to your journal before ever meeting Nerussa, she’s extremely close to the opening area of the game, near the Imperial City. Whether you choose to seek out Nerussa soon after emerging from the sewers or hold off, A Venerable Vintage offers a helpful reward.
