95pts Natalie MacLean

The 2022 Caymus Napa Valley 50th Anniversary Cabernet Sauvignon is a celebration in a glass. The nose is a tapestry of dark berries—blackberry, cassis, and ripe plum. The palate features tobacco, vanilla, and a hint of dark chocolate. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a firm yet velvety structure, with a long, satisfying finish. Pair with duck confit in blackberry sauce, braised short ribs with rosemary polenta or a mushroom and truffle risotto.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: grilled New York strip loin, pork tenderloin, hamburger, hard cheese, grilled lamb chops.

91pts Wine Spectator

A creamy, forward style, with a core of warmed raspberry and boysenberry preserves infused liberally with mocha and melted licorice. Shows a late flicker of chaparral. This is meant for near-term hedonism. Drink now through 2034.

Winemaker Notes

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 a range of Napa’s sub-appellations – from Coombsville to Calistoga – with fruit from the valley floor creating lushness and the hillsides providing backbone. Diversification enables us to make the best possible wine in a given year, featuring layered, lush aromas and flavors, including cocoa, cassis and ripe berries.
