Caymus Vineyards
California Cabernet Sauvignon
California, USA

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!

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

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

Soft edges. Dark chocolate. Easy drinker.

Jul 21st, 2026Very fruity with layered notes. If I’d blind tasted it, I would’ve thought it’s a Zinfandel.
