Really well composed wine. Smooth from beginning to end with balanced tannins and acidity. Mellow flavor with cherry undertones. Dry but even. — 10 years ago

I'm going to come clean, I'm not a huge Caymus fan. It's by no means a bad wine - far from it - but I've always felt they blend their Cab with too much Zin. I could be wrong on that account, but I don't think I am. Still, a nice brooding nose of dark red and blue fruit, with a touch of candied fruit and wet earth. — 11 years ago

Really nice GSM. Pretty much a Chateauneuf-du-Pape from Washington state. Boysenberry compote! Yum! New World for sure, but with lots of structure and earthy undertones. — 10 years ago

Definitely about the crisp and clean. Agree with the wet stone and after rain descriptors from winery. My favorite 2013 'Cru' Soave so far. Still need to taste Pieropan La Rocca which is typically my favorite. — 11 years ago

So much 🐴🍂✏️🚬 ! Nice to have an "off vintage" in pristine condition. Far from a blockbuster but delicious, soft, and very easy to drink. #birthyear — 11 years ago

It's funny, the Syrahs from this winery I've had lately are ultra high tone, acidic with minimal body. This of course, is the opposite with huge amounts of ripe, creamy red fruits. There is a cream soda aspect here that is far too opulent for me. I could see alot of people enjoying this, but I was looking for something else. — 11 years ago

This was from the case @Jim Westby had bought decades ago- served blind with steak frites. Although it tasted far too young & fresh to be an 88, I couldn't think of a more recent vintage in this lighter, brighter style. It had so much minerality that I thought it was Graves! — 11 years ago
