Caymus Vineyards California Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Sipping Fine Wine

Tried their second release from Caymus Vineyards, this wine is a California-appellation Cabernet Sauvignon, so grapes can come from anywhere in CA! Dark Ruby, aromas of ripe black fruits, smoky tobacco and pepper spices. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with herb, cacao, espresso and vanilla oak, after it opened up. Fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, cacao, vanilla and earthy herbs. Drinkable now! Seems a bit pricey!

Smooth and full of flavorful black and red fruit notes. No need to open up, wonderful from the very first sip.

Erin Crain

Herbaceous notes lead into dark berries, good tannin structure and pleasing, toasty finish.

Allyson O'Keefe

Earthy, funky red fruit front with notes of cigar and dark cherry. Dry, wooly finish. Straightforward, but lovely. Just red fruit, oak, smoke, and tannins.

Tom Jenkins

Never seen this label - as I understand, it is one of Chuck Wagner’s junior Caymus - a blend of multiple cab grapes from the Sonoma valley. It tastes just like that - super soft, big dark red juice. Soft, velvet finish. For $79, feels like a steal.

I realize this is a Caymus, but not really Caymus. However, for $50-$60 bucks, I felt like I had Caymus. Big, juicy cab. Plum, raspberry, cherries. We enjoyed it with friends and a fireplace roaring in the background. Would’ve gone very well with a steak. Wish I could’ve aged it another 2-3 years.

1/2025. Full of flavor. Good fruit. Smooth finish. Paired well with the short ribs at Mr. Friendly’s.
