Excellent, I mean excellent Zinfandel Value
Last year Lucy profiled Cameron Huges wines - although they are not readily available in many stores, luckily I have a membership to Sam's Club and the Luces have a membership to Costco, two stores that carry a few of the CH Wines.
We recently had the Lot 111 Zinfandel from Paso Robles....
"Taste: Sweet raspberries on the nose made complex with tobacco notes and sweet cigar smoke. Beautiful on the palate with mature, fine tannins, rich raspberry and blackberry fruit. Full bodied and super smooth with a nice long finish, this Zin is big and bold with great balance to boot."
As with many Cameron Hughes wines, it didn't disappoint and in fact it was great. And even better news - you can pick up a bottle at Sam's Club for $8.88. No, I didn't forget to the put the "1" in front of that.... $8.88. Run, now, and pick up at least 3-6 bottles, you won't be disappointed!!!
