Beautiful nose. Surprisingly fresh with good tannins. Eucalyptus on the nose gave it a summer feel. Lovely. Dark fruit. Want more earth but a lovely wine

An excellent Caymus SS, though not the best, as persistent bitter tannins take a small toll. Espresso roast and dark red fruit, miles and miles to go.

On its last legs. Drink up. Got better with airtime but still not nearly the wine it once was.

In great shape. Muscular and serious, still has that lovely boisterous edge and balanced personality which I adore in high quality Napa wines.

This is really great stuff. Thought it was a left bank Cabernet dominated Bordeaux from 2010. Well. I was wrong. This is so self assured, layered and smooth, without exaggerating. Truly amazing.
