Great 3 Liter size for Big Bottle Lovers! This is the 50th anniversary 2022 vintage!!! In 1971 Charlie and Lorna Wagner asked their young son Chuck if he would be interested in joining them in starting up a winery and he leapt at the opportunity. They produced their first vintage in 1972, consisting of 240 cases of Cabernet Sauvignon and they continue to focus their efforts on top quality Cabernet Sauvignon to this day. Caymus Vineyards remains 100% family-owned by the Wagners. Charlie, Lorna Belle, and Chuck worked together as a remarkable team for over 30 years building Caymus Cabernet. Today, Chuck, his two sons, Charlie and Joe, and one daughter, Jenny, have joined the family team. Farming grapes remain the priority with the family farming about 350 acres of prime Napa Valley land. The Wagners took the name Caymus from the Mexican land grant known as Rancho Caymus, given to George Yount in 1836, which encompassed what eventually became the town of Rutherford and much of the surrounding area.
Caymus has a signature style that is dark in color, with rich fruit and ripe tannins - as approachable in youth as in maturity. Since its founding in 1972, Caymus has become renowned as a consistent leader in the production of Napa Valley Cabernet. Grapes for this wine are farmed in 8 of Napa's 16 sub-appellations, with diversification enabling Caymus to make the best possible wine in a given year. Caymus Cabernet offers layered, lush aromas and flavors, including cocoa, cassis and ripe berries.

A plush, caressing style, with creamed boysenberry and blackberry flavors liberally laced with mocha and singed vanilla notes. A melted black licorice detail coats the finish. For fans of the hedonist style. Drink now through 2034. 141,500 cases made.
