CAM X Lot 5 & Lot 10 Mix and Match FUTURES OFFER (12 bottles)

From producer Cameron Hughes:

With great numbers comes great responsibility! So, how about some Mountain Muscle?

Legendary Hillside vineyard? Check.
Insider blocks? Check.
90% new French oak? Check.
$200+/bottle price point? Check.
Producer bottling blend? Check.

Showcasing a combination of hillside meets mountain power, Lot 10 2023 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a huge, ripe, muscular combination of meaty yet high-toned Coombsville fruit (58%) blended with 42% of some of the Cabernet best blocks from the massive "vineyard that must not be named" that straddles Atlas Peak to Pritchard Hill (I used to source fruit from this vineyard so I know it well; however, to be honest, I was never able to work my way into these blocks as they were reserved for the who's who of consulting winemakers/luxury brands). Aged in~90% new French oak (Taransaud, Francois Freres, Seguin Moreau, etc.) and built for a $200+/bottle price tag, it easily has the stuffing to go 20+ years in your cellar.

Originally intended as a new, Icon-level offering for their portfolio (the program names are built into the lot codes), the producer simply wanted to reduce inventories and we split the final blend. The wine just hit our barn last week and goes into the bottle at the end of the month. There are approximately 200 cases available.

From producer Cameron Hughes:

Pretty tight NDA here folks so not much I can share other than the appellations involved (Knight's Valley and Oakville) and the final BDX blend...no discussion of price points, locations, or vineyards. I do think it is fair to note that this is not a flagship wine, but I believe it would be unfair to call it a "second wine". What I CAN tell you is that it is fantastic wine, and we are bottling the blend as it was received.

Regardless, I am confident the content below will be enough to entice you to...

Lot 5 comes to us from a legendary winery. Produced in a lush, open-knit yet beautifully structured and utterly seamless style, this 2023 Knights Valley Meritage or Proprietary Red, if you prefer, captures the '23 vintage in all its glory.

With tremendous upfront appeal (read: this will drink well now) and the capability to go another 15+years, Lot 5 is not just a sensational wine, but an amazing value! Trust me on this folks, if you like a succulent, ripe, hedonistic style produced with Swiss watchmaking precision, this is for you. Indeed, it is ABSOLUTELY TIME TO BACK UP THE TRUCK!
