Cameron Hughes Lot 36 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford District California

A drinking/sipping wine, not a food wine, but missing on at least one cylinder and it’s available only through Costco.

It has a clear, bright, medium to deep violet color with little structure to the wine. What’s also missing is apparently any aroma as I didn’t detect much when I was sampling this wine. There is a nice balance to this wine, a medium finish, low to medium acidity and soft tannins. All an all it’s a likeable wine. I just wish there was more depth to this one….

Nice. Tasty. Good for sipping with a cultured lass after returning from the ampitheater. Add a warm fire, a few crackers and some soft cheddar.
