1973 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon ... Built to last with fruit still there. They don't make them like this any longer. #napa #caymus — 9 years ago

Yikes, I too trusted the #caymus label but there’s just too much jammy fruit here, hyperactive oak and some roguish tannins. — 5 years ago

Wax on, wax off: this evening I took a rare field-trip to Waxhaw, which is way beyond my typical radius of existence. I had planned an anniversary dinner at Heritage, and my good friend "Coach Witty" encouraged me to run a mile race with her at track night in those parts beforehand (why not run a 5min race right before a nice dinner?!) I ended up winning and getting a PR, and Heritage was worth the trek. Food Babe walked in and sat down next to us - hopefully she only had good things to say about Paul Verica's passion project, as I loved it!! As for the wine...I have been asked, "what's a good wine to give as a nice gift?"....and I often suggest Caymus cab. It's always solid, a fruit bomb, and elegantly-finished. A known quantity. Perfectly paired with the local summer vegetables and my steak. And last but not least, let's all raise a glass to Pat Summit - the winningest coach in D1 history to date - that certainly gains my respect. May her legacy live on #caymus #theextramile — 8 years ago

Mike R

In Raleigh recently? I went to a different dinner for the local wine experience in 2016I just do not remember that there was one - I plan to go when the annual wine experience comes in Feb 2017 - Like his wines

@Shay Aldriedge total sleeper on the list! Perfect with seared king salmon. Guessing your wife and I would get along well!

Mark Flesher

A guilty pleasure of mine as well. They have voyage 3 at the Kroger down the street and I have already bought two of them. Good to hear voyage 2 is drinking well.
