Outstanding Cabernet from Horse Heaven Hills

I don’t know of a better value wine at this moment than the remarkable 2012 Columbia Crest Horse Heaven Hills H3 Cabernet Sauvignon.  We have previously recommended some great wines from the Washington state winery, and there’s a better than zero chance that friends might find a Columbia Crest daily drinker in my personal cellar at any given time due to their consistent high quality and true value price.   The 2012 H3 Cabernet Sauvignon is certainly no exception.   Indeed, if anything, the bar has been reset even higher with this vintage.   Wine Spectator just bestowed a whopping 92 rating on this.  This medium to full bodied Cab has hints of plum and red fruits, with follow up tastes of chocolate and a herbal quality.   Very balanced and easy drinking, this is a Cab you can serve either with a juicy T-Bone steak or byitself with cheeses and nuts for cocktail hour.   And the best part?   This bad boy set your wallet back only $15.    If you shop carefully, probably $12.  What is keeping you from buying a case or two?   This great wine is widely available.  House wine alert!
