No Critics' Comments Yet...Here's What We Thought:
A rich, showy style with a very creamy texture to its mix of warmed vanilla, plum, and boysenberry purée and melted black licorice flavors. A mocha note swirls around the fruit on the finish. It's too new for reviews.
This is a wine that celebrates all of the team plus their extraordinary growers. It is a result of happy soils, healthy vines, low crop yield, low to no irrigation, harvest at high ripeness levels-these are the key ingredients of the Caymus style. This vintage especially exhibits an expression of the style which Caymus is known for and is as singular in their approach to making it. Rich and round on the palate, with minimal tannins expressed in a textural manner that are non-bitter. Evidence of French oak, but not overplayed. Acidity enough for balance, but not tart to the palate. The Caymus style allows the consumer to face no hurdles in tasting and enjoying the delicious essence of the wine.
