The 2010 Cameron Hughes Lot 339 California Field Blend begins with pleasant aromas of blackberry, plum, pepper and a little sweet spice. Tasting reveals a simple but very tasty blend featuring dark fruit, oaky spice and a little cola. Medium-bodied with an excellent smooth dry texture, this makes for a great everyday wine. It ends dry with chewy tannins and good length. Say hello to your new house wine.
