Another example of how great the wines being made by Dakota Shy are. Todd Newman and Tom Garrett have a knack for making great wines. This Cabernet, even very young, sends a message to every other iconic Napa cabernet they have something to contend with. Lots of black fruit and blue fruit on the nose with incredible flavors of blackberries, plums, and currants. I love this wine. — 8 years ago

I wish all things that smelled like butter pecan ice cream tasted like summer lemonade, burnt caramel and miles of mushrooms. I'll have to do with this. — 11 years ago

KWN Wine 5. This one was confusing, and shocking upon reveal. Quite a special treat!!! Plummy, but felt the fruit was fading. The tannins were super strong, suggesting youth. Earthy finish. Thinking this is just in transition and still has miles to go. Be interested to see what it's like in 5 more years. — 9 years ago
Just wonderful. Full of flavor of fruits and minerals, w/out out oak or butter. Very drinkable, and makes you think after each mouthful "what new flavor is that"... — 10 years ago
A wine experience of a lifetime, we we enjoying a meal in Bordeaux Centre when our hosts poured this wine blind for us. They ask me to guess what it was. Since this was a long dinner, I had plenty of time. But I worked quickly and guessed Château Margaux. Why? I am not sure, but I went on and said that this wine was either the 1983 or 1986. I had no prompts; I didn't even know that it came out of our hosts cellar. It may have been on the wine list, I never even looked. I just broke down the wines elegance, excellent structure and softened tannins. Now before we get too excited here. I could have been a million miles away with my guess, but it wouldn't have matter. Right or wrong, close or far away, this is always a good exercise for those serious about be a well trained wine taster. The hosts and present company were actually amazed. One is never really wrong with their guesses, though to nail a wine out of the blue was really cool!😏#bordeaux #margaux #chateaumargaux #guessthiswine — 12 years ago
Caymus is Caymus and will have plenty of fans - I'm not one of them since the mid 90's.
Having smelt Mega Purple (a grape concentrate allowed in winemaking) before this gives me associations of a strongly manipulated wine.
At the price point this is a definite no-go for me.

I don't know if this really feels like Miles to me, but don't let that dissuade you. A fun sparkling wine with interesting complexity from a unique area and grapes. Fiano and Aglianico (what?) bring a fruity notes likes peach and maybe even some sour cherry or strawberry? Or is that just my mind thinking about the Aglianico? Some unique herbal notes, perhaps oregano or rosemary, not 'green'. Finishes dry with a polite bit of chalky minerality. This is my kind of bubbles, though I know I'm a heretic when it comes to sparkling. — 10 years ago
