2019 Caymus Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Tasting Notes
Caymus has a signature style that is dark in color, with rich fruit and ripe, velvety tannins - as approachable in youth as in maturity. We farm Cabernet grapes in eight of Napa's 16 sub-appellations, with diversification enabling us to make the best possible wine in a given year. Our Cabernet offers layered, lush aromas and flavors, including cocoa, cassis, and ripe dark berries.

A rich, showy style, with a very creamy texture to its mix of warmed vanilla, plum and boysenberry puree, and melted black licorice flavors. A mocha notes swirls around the fruit on the finish. Drink now through 2028. - JM

Ruby black color. Aromas of vanilla blueberry pastry, star anise, eucalyptus, and cedar with a tannic, racy, dry full body and a peppery, intricate, very long blackberry jam, hibiscus black tea, chocolate mousse, and allspice finish with firm, chewy, well-integrated tannins and heavy oak flavor. A bold and complex Cabernet that shows nuance and muscle.

Syrupy blackcurrant fruit that pushes all the correct buttons for the variety. Super-creamy and succulent on the palate – what a pleasure! French oak spice keeps pace with the fruit. It's a Napa blockbuster of the old school. (RH)
