Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
Though Caymus isn't on the front label, you can tell this is theirs by the style of the wine. Caymus purchases the Malbec grapes from Mendoza, ships them chilled to their winery in Napa, and creates each under a different voyage number.
Super dark in the glass. The nose is full of ripe cherries, plums and baking spices. Typical Malbec notes of earthy dark chocolate, and the signature Caymus texture and vanilla on the palate. The finish is very full of fruit concentrate. If someone told me they had recently squeezed fresh blackberries in to this, I would believe it. My wife pulled a random bottle out to pair with our grilled bacon wrapped pork medallions. I think the pairing helped and pushed this to be a 9.
