SPECIAL ENCORE ALERT: Today’s wine is our most popular single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon of all time. The last time we featured it, the winery assured us that there were no more cases left, anywhere in the world. Ever vigilant, Agent Red conducted his own investigation - and found a small number of cases at a large distributor! If you missed this wine in the past, now is your chance to enjoy this truly exceptional Cabernet.
What follows is our original review:
Today’s wine is made from a W3 vineyard that was formerly - and exclusively - tended and harvested for world-famous Caymus Vineyards. Caymus wines are known for consistently garnering stratospheric scores in the mid to upper 90s.
For today’s wine, 4 tons of this world-famous fruit are combined with fruit from the top of the revered Diamond Mountain AVA. With such a remarkable pedigree, it is easy to see why this richly-styled Cabernet landed on Wine Spectator’s Top 100 Cabs of Napa Valley ”Best of the Best” list.
The combination of soft, supple valley floor fruit with structured, firm fruit from the volcanic soils atop Diamond Mountain is sublime. This wine is delicious and harmonious on the nose and on the palate.
Don’t cry too many tears for Caymus… but do remember to stock up. Once this wine is gone, it’ll be gone forever.
