A friend shared this with me today! I had it a few years ago at a dinner and loved it. So velvety smooth with notes of cinnamon. A nice treat!

Was opened on Thanksgiving so I am sure the structure of the wine has changed. Tannins were not biting and there was still some cinnamon, sweet cherry fruit. 1 Liter bottle.

Gift from a customer/friend at work. Really appreciate the subtlety of this wine, not overdone. Cassis, cedar, cigar box, juniper berry, herbs, medium tannins, nice acid. Could’ve waited, but had a steak :)

My first Caymus experience: smooth, silky and so well refined I understand the price tag. Oh so perfect on the nose and Initial entry on the palette, tapering to a full bodied experience that can convince anyone of the province of fine Californian wine!

The texture and color were both excellent and the flavors were full bodied spanning from boysenberry, through leather, into seared steak, but also had cigar/tobacco. Enjoyed by all.
