This is my second review with this one. I wanted to share with our friends since they cooked us a nice steak dinner. The wine went very well with dinner and was enjoyed and finished off pretty quickly!

A nice Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles, California.

Dry to off dry on the palate with black fruits and chocolate notes, vanilla, wood, spices and peppercorn.

Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity.

Good right out of the bottle. Good for parties, although a tad pricy.

From the house of the Wagner family, supposed to be a mini Caymus, but you get what you pay for 😊

13.9% alcohol by volume.

This is a nice Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles, made by Caymus.

Showing red and black fruits with maple, caramel, milk chocolates, oak, vanilla, tobacco and light alcohol.

Medium bodied with medium acidity and hot at the back of the throat.

Might be too young still. I need to check it again in 3 years.

This Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles is always enjoyable.

Off dry on the palate with black and red fruits, oak, vanilla, licorice, spices, light vegetables, light earth, mocha and maple syrup.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Pleasent on the finish with soft tannins.

A good everyday wine. Good by itself or with food, and a good sipping wine, but might be too sweet for some.

To begin, I am a big fan of Caymus wines, if fact I just got back from a Napa trip and visited Caymus (only tasting Napa wines). 1858 is a Paso Robles Cab, I didn’t like the ‘16 & ‘17 a bit better but still disappointing. Aromas of dark red fruits and some spices. The palate shows big ripe black cherry with pungent oaky pepper spice. Tannins are biting that stick, leaving a medium finish ending hot and spicy. Just ok. Tasting Sample.

Not too shabby but also not much to write home about. Probably better in a few years. Excited about the Paso Robles region.

Just...not good. Jammy, a little heated, medicinal, syrupy.
