Cameron Hughes, Walla Walla Valley (Washington) Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Feb 8, 2017

By Rich Cook

Crazy good Cabernet for eighteen bucks!  This is a beautifully assembled wine that shows its Washington roots with lots of stone minerality accompanying blackberry, currants and brown spice aromas and flavors.  Don’t be fooled by its drink me now pricing — there’s some structure here to keep it gaining complexity over the next five years or so.  Buy it by the case!  A Platinum Award winner at the 2017 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
