What we have here is a Meritage, our Bordeaux-style blend showcasing some varietals that really thrive in the North Coast. Incredible appellation selection including Atlas Peak, Oakville, and Chalk Hill. Predominately Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine also sees some Merlot to really complete the classic structure one expects from a crafted wine. This blend will seriously over-deliver on it's $18 price tag.

Nice Surprise
This wine was acceptable and a good value. After Leaving an unfinishe bottle until the following day I was really happy with the result. The wine had substantially improved.

Somehow still available
About to be 6 years old and still available, not sure how. This is a great Meritage and way better than the Lot 318 bottle I purchased on the same order. (318 was good, but this was great). Buy it before it's gone!

Amazing Wine
My husband and I are novice wine connoisseurs for the past 10 years. I recently stumbled across Cameron Hughes Wines and have now become a wine snobs. What an incredible value for an incredibly rich tasting wine! We absolutely love the Meritage! It is so incredibly delicious!!!
Cameron, you are amazing! We can't wait to taste your next discovery!

Nice Wine
I'm usually not a big fan of blends, but found this one better than most -- definitely not a compromise like many cheaper meritages. I think this wine will get better as it ages.

Sleeper
This wine is a sleeper that really has grown on me. Elegant, refined, supple, soft tannins. Soft blueberry notes with a hint of licorice. Definitely look forward to seeing how this changes over the next couple years.

Black Fruit Peppery and a good value
First review of CHW wine. First off I would say like anything you have to have trust. I have been buying CHW wine for a number of years because I was attracted to the concept. Wine is personal and I liked Cameron's story. THAT, as an options trader, appeals to me and I think enhances my enjoyment of the wine. To get to this specific bottle 331, it has a nice blend to it like a smooth merlot yet it has a lasting finish in the back of the mouth. It has a big black fruit flavor and a peppery quality but that its probably the tannins. It goes well with food and would be a nice everyday wine.
