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.

NO pseudo academic vino-babble; just a great wine and among the most enjoyable domestic wine in a very long time shared with spouse and friends on the balcony of Alfond Inn in Winter Park, FL.

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 :)

Beautiful dark burgundy color with aromas of earthy forest fruits, licorice, and leather. After it opens, it has beautiful vanilla flavors. Rich, full bodied, and chewy. Would be a wine to enjoy with a nicely marbled steak!

nice dry, i can taste notes of barrel...i feel a brief “hint” of acidity... i really enjoy this wine with some aged manchego and prosciutto...its kinda expensive though...

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!
