Cameron Hughes 2013 Lot 596 Monte Rosso Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma Valley)

Country: US / Lot 596 Monte Rosso Vineyard
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Cameron Hughes / Sonoma Valley

This wine shows great potential but is still so young and tightly wound, it takes time to suss out its delicately floral aromas of lavender and violet, which then give way to smooth, soft layers of peppercorn and chocolate. The tannins mellow on the finish, but this is big, bold wine made in a big, bold style.
