Tried their second release from Caymus Vineyards, this wine is a California-appellation Cabernet Sauvignon, so grapes can come from anywhere in CA! Dark Ruby, aromas of ripe black fruits, smoky tobacco and pepper spices. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with herb, cacao, espresso and vanilla oak, after it opened up. Fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, cacao, vanilla and earthy herbs. Drinkable now! Seems a bit pricey!

Herbaceous notes lead into dark berries, good tannin structure and pleasing, toasty finish.

Smooth and full of flavorful black and red fruit notes. No need to open up, wonderful from the very first sip.

1/2025. Full of flavor. Good fruit. Smooth finish. Paired well with the short ribs at Mr. Friendly’s.

Nice Cab that went well with our Ribeye and Wedge Salad. Deep ruby with aromas of dark cherry, plum, tobacco, and spices. On the bud, cherry and stewed fruits, flavors with mild tannins and a medium finish,
