Merchant's description

Caymus Vineyards Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 showcases the unique characteristics of a robust Napa Valley vintage. This wine requires ample aeration, benefitting from a decant of at least one hour to reveal its complexities. Aromatically, it presents initial hints of black cherry and plum, accompanied by notes of mocha and subtle herbal undertones. The palate features layered flavours of anise, crème de cassis and a touch of coffee. Founded in 1972 by Charles and Lissa Caymus, the winery has a legacy of producing award-winning Cabernet Sauvignons, exemplifying the essence of its Napa Valley terroir.
