Without doubt the greatest sticky I’ve ever tasted. I nosed it for 30 mins, it was so clear and bright with tropical fruit and light stony minerality. The apricot and mango were lifted over my palate by actual angels who may’ve swiped a taste on the brief journey. Wish I could’ve sat up with a last glass all night, thank you Lenny. 🙏🏼 — 8 months ago
We really wanted to love this, but alas, we think that around 2012 was when Caymus decided to focus on an à la carte presentation, which makes for quite a shallow encounter.
They have tapped into the logic of the Skinner box operant conditioning. We humanoids press a lever (in this case pull a cork), and a one-night-stand promptly arrives in our glass. Us peeps tend to follow the crowd (I present myself as exhibit A), but when you taste this, it makes a splash, but flatters to deceive.

Great champagne blend with sharp bubbles and toasted caramel notes. Some green apple. Excellent especially at $25. — 6 years ago
In great vintages, second wines from pedigree Chateauxs are always a safe bet, and this is no exception. Pretty open on the nose, indicating its readiness, while hidden tannins and iron/blood-like flavours on the palate suggests waiting is clever, as it’s still one dimensional and needs time to fully express itself. — 7 years ago

Red fruits, black plum, oak, tobacco, smoke, leather, excellent balance. A little too soft for my taste — 7 months ago
Truly an elegant expression from aged Napa wine. The notes of cedar and cigar box coupled with some mushroom and earth tones dominate. On the taste, the rich mouthfeels steel shows some fruit notes with deep blueberry and plum notes. I REALLY LIKE THIS WINE! And am glad to still have this in my cellar... — 5 years ago
Silver oak continues to be my favorite wine with its smooth and silky taste. Obviously Alexander valley over Napa. 2008 is also a real treat. — 5 years ago
Super bright, raw honey notes, bing cherry — 7 years ago
Color of bubbly egg white. Nose of honey , a bit gasoline, pineapple, and actually a bit nutty and oaky note. Taste is sweet honey, some zesty peel, Sprite, citrus, lemonade like flavor, light yet refreshing. Aftertaste is a bit short, but definitely a crowd pleaser. — 7 years ago

Extreme vanilla taste, full bodied red. Love the bourbon hint! Would drink again for sure — 8 years ago
Sight: pale yellow, medium viscosity
Smell: tropical, lime, sweet, vanilla,
Taste: medium acidity, oak, light tannin, orange, tropical flavor (pineapple, coconut, lime), buttery, starts of very bright followed by a nice bit of sweetness, that descends into a long finish, there is a smoothness though that comes through the the brightness and acidity almost like a melon of some sort.
Opinion: very nice Chardonnay, a little expensive, but almost worth the money. — 9 years ago
