Cameron Hughes Private Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Six Vintage Vertical (2006 - 2011) Wine Mixed Pack with Wooden Gift Box, 6 X 750 mL

California-based negociant, Cameron Hughes, sourced this amazing 2006-2011 six-bottle vertical of Napa Valley Cabernet from one of the best Cabernet producers in Napa Valley. This is a once-in-a-lifetime, never-to-be-seen-again opportunity to own a six-bottle, six-vintage vertical of Cabernet Sauvignon from some of the best hillside estate vineyards in Oakville, Rutherford, and St. Helena. How did he get these wines? He can't say much about it other than this: a particular winery has quietly changed hands, and the vineyards didn't come along with the winery. Given his reputation for discretion, he was offered first shot at these. This six-bottle, six-vintage vertical of Cabernet Sauvignon has cellared since bottling at 55 degrees in Nest Egg Storage - the Fort Knox of wine storage in Napa. These wines are stupendous, made with Swiss-watch precision, and perfectly reflect the vintage; each a wholly unique experience unto itself. These are archetypal Napa Cabernets: big and inky yet perfectly balanced, and produced in 100% new French oak. While they are immense fun to drink and evaluate now, they will age anywhere from another 12-25 years depending on the vintage. The retail price above reflects the cost to purchase these wines at auction today, which is the only place you would find them under the original label which, cannot be revealed!
