Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon 40th Anniversary Napa
| Vintage: | 2012 |

| Description: | (96 Points) They appear to be immune to some of winedom's less than intelligent trends and fads that we see from time to time, and the result is a spectacular 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon 40th Anniversary offering. Its dense purple/black color is followed by copious quantities of crème de cassis and blackberry fruit, silky tannins, a voluptuous texture and stunning purity as well as length. This full-bodied effort is a fabulous example of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon as well as a tribute to this amazing family. It is so good now, why wait? However, I'm sure that like most vintages of Caymus, it will last for 20-25 years. Amazing!. I am old enough to remember Chuck Wagner and his father, who I first met at Caymus in the late seventies. This is clearly one of Napa Valley's iconic wineries, as well as one that, amazingly, never went through a bad patch. Obviously, no matter which generation is in the driver's seat (or should I say tractor's seat), Caymus Vineyard knows how to deliver flavor and deliciousness. -Robert Parker. eRobertParker.com #215 Oct 2014. |
