The Cameron Hughes team has a knack for sniffing out world-class wines and offering them—quietly—at prices that make wine lovers do a double take. Lot 961 is no exception. Sourced from one of Napa Valley’s top producers, this 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied stunner with a pretty, easy-drinking style. It opens with an intense bouquet of blackberry compote, blackcurrant, and dark cherry, unfolding into notes of sweet tobacco, cedar, dried herbs, and a whisper of violet. Rich and layered, it’s the kind of Cab that elevates everything from grilled ribeye and lamb chops to braised short ribs and duck. Bold, elegant, and under-the-radar—just the way Cameron Hughes likes it.
