About this bottle
Caymus Special Selection is the winery's top-tier Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from Napa Valley fruit and only produced in years the winemaking team considers strong enough to merit it. It's more concentrated and more heavily oaked than the standard Caymus Napa Valley bottling. Expect ripe blackberry, cassis, and dark chocolate on the nose, with hints of toasted oak and vanilla, and a rich, dense palate carrying the same blackberry and cassis alongside mocha and baking spice. The finish is long, warm, and lingering, with firm tannins underneath the fruit. This is a big, extracted style built for drinkers who want intensity over restraint.
How to drink Caymus Special Selection
Give it a decant, or at least 30 minutes of air, before pouring - the density and tannin here benefit from it. It's a natural with a dry-aged ribeye or other rich, fatty cuts that can stand up to its weight.
