Full-blown, ripe and rich, with intense and sharply focused dried currant, wild berry and blackberry fruit that's still fairly tannic at this stage. Ends with a long, persistent finish. (JL)

Connoisseurs Guide

12/2008
Ripeness and sweet oak are the governing traits of this very rich and wide-open wine, and it is more geared to dark chocolate and caramelly sweetness than it is to classic Cabernet fruit. That said, it is positively plush on the palate with extract to spare, so much so, in fact, as to make its hard turn to tannin and heat an acceptable sin.

Ripe and fleshy, with rich plum, wild berry, spice and savory herb notes that are complex, full-bodied and expansive on the palate, ending with firm tannins and a dash of espresso. (JL)

Notes

Robert Parker writes in Wine Advocate: "Few wineries in the world can boast such an enviable record of consistent excellence as that of Caymus." (10/1993)

Notes

Founded by Charlie, Lorna, and Chuck Wagner in 1972, Caymus built its reputation around Cabernet Sauvignon. The Napa Valley bottling draws on vineyard sources from across the valley rather than a single site, reflecting the house style that made it the winery's flagship red.
