The Wine Attic with Jan Manni

The Wine Attic is just like any other attic - a place to find treasures. The uniqueness of the Wine Attic is that we celebrate the great finds in quality wines without the big price tag. However, we do review allocation wines, those "can't find" wines that are highly rated and can pinch the pocketbook. What we do is find the best of the best for you. An educational experience can be had by joining our eclectic Wine Newsletter which brings you the 411 on wines of the world.

Lot 107 2005 Meritage, Cameron Hughes Wine, Napa Valley

I have heard some complaints on this wine, vinegar, cooked, etc. I just tasted it and it is exquisist.  I love the cab franc in this wine.  I think what is happening is the transport of this wine into your area has been poor as well as the storage.  The wine is great, especially for the price.  That is one of the biggest problems - the distribution variances really can hamper the quality of wine.  So as far as the current product, sin transport, it is very high quality - nothing to do with the CHW quality standards.  So if you get a bad bottle of CHWine, take it back for refund and complain about its transport care.
