A rain soaked winter brought about a spectacular spring, with vine growth showing the first glimpse of fruit in April. The 2010 growing season continued with unusually cool periods which ultimately resulted in low productions. There is an old rule in the making of fine wine "poor yields produce the richest wines." I feel that our 2010 Caymus "Napa Valley" Cabernet is a product of low yield producing a fine wine that defines the Caymus style. The nose of this wine is especially interesting to me. There's the presence of a well-cared for, clean farmstead. Possibly the aroma of a freshly opened bale of hay or the combine dust during the summer harvest at my cousins wheat farm in St. John, Washington.

In some vintages, the decision about when to pick is a tough judgment call as we closely follow the maturation of the grapes` flavors and tannins. Both Chris Phelps and I found this vintage less deman

Lots of rich, creamy oak and a tasty core of ripe currant, plum and black cherry fruit combine to form this notably complex and concentrated young wine. Delicious from start to finish, with a long, fruity aftertaste and fine-grained tannins. Wine Spectator. A Cabernet Sauvignon wine from California in USA. 2002 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml
