Caymus Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon 2009
Napa Valley, California, United StatesOpen spicy, peppery, chocolate, vanilla, prune, cassis jam nose flecked with blackberry jam, bay leaf, tapenade and roasted meat aromas. Big, rich, full, round, intense palate with chalky, youthful tannins. The fruit is rich with vanilla, blackberry kirsch, savoury, coffee, chocolate cedar, tobacco, tomato paste and olive flavours. Big concentration and intensity with some grainy tannin yet to disperse. Give it 2-4 years. It definitely has the fruit to support another five to seven years in bottle.Tasted: 04 January 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $125.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
