Suisun (su-soon) Valley, which lies to the Southeast of Caymus and a 40-minute drive. Dark Ruby with aromas of dark fruit and exotic spices on this Petite Sirah. On the palate flavors of blackberry and ripe blueberry with smoky oak, herb notes and dusty drying smooth tannins. Well balanced on a long finish ending with a mineral tang. A Wagner Winner!

Doing a wine pairing at Carrabbas with Caymus wines. This one is a bit spicy for me especially with Italian sausage and rigatoni, would be much better without a spicy pairing.

Did not rate. Maybe an off bottle because my experience was way off from characteristics noted by other reviewers. Upon opening; prune juice. On the second day; sweet prune juice. 3rd day; austere prune stew which was approaching tolerable. 4th day; sink drain.

We had the 2017 Vintage on 9/9-10/21. A full bodied, fruit forward wine with smoothed out tannins. Blackberry, plum and some oak. A good wine that is distinctly Caymus.
