2010 Caymus, Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, Bottle (750ml)

RP98 "The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection exhibits an opaque purple color, slightly more toasty oak in the aromatics, and explosive richness on the attack, mid-palate and length. The nose is slightly more restrained than in the regular bottling, but there is no doubting the Special Selection is a cut or two above the Napa bottling when it hits the palate. Extraordinary purity of fruit, creme de cassis, licorice and incense all emerge from this full-bodied, iconic classic. It can be enjoyed now and over the next 25+ years." RP Oct 2013
"Few wineries in the world can boast such an enviable record of consistent excellence as that of Caymus." Robert Parker Published: Oct 25, 1993
