  • 2006 Cameron Hughes Cabernet Sauvignon Lot 146 Diamond Mountain - USA, California, Napa Valley, Diamond Mountain (1/4/2010)
    Caveat: After having bronchitis the past week, perhaps taste was off.
    Very dark blackish purple color. Plum, dark cherry, slightly sour cherry lifesaver, and hint of dark chocolate on the nose. On the palate was plum & dark cherry, but more on the red fruit side, Pretty acidic on the back of my palate and not detecting many tannins. (86 pts.)

You are a bit more generous than me on the score—found it to be lean & hard in the same way that most of the Haven’s 2006 juice that is flooding the market is. Lots of not-so-good 2006 juice available bulk—haven’t seen much that was good, or frankly would be worth bottling & $20.00.
