2015 Caymus "Special Selection" Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
95
Wine Spectator
Review Date: 06/2019This delivers almost unbridled plum sauce, blackberry preserve and melted licorice flavors, but keeps a smoldering edge for form while picking up alluring black tea and incense notes on the broad finish. There’s a long echo of chocolate adding to this hedonist’s delight. *Highly Recommended* (JM)

Notes
Caymus's "Special Selection" is the pride of the Wagner family. Their flagship wine is comprised of the very best barrels of the vintage, and is not produced in years where the quality doesn't meet Chuck Wagner's standards. Robert Parker writes in Wine Advocate: "Few wineries in the world can boast such an enviable record of consistent excellence as that of Caymus. There is no doubting that Cabernet Sauvignon is King at Caymus. For nearly twenty years this winery has excelled at producing boldly-flavored, ripe, concentrated regular bottlings and lavishly-oaked, big, spicy, luxury-priced Special Selection offerings." (10/1993)
