Introducing the 50th Anniversary Edition of Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon. In 1972, few wineries existed – and each of them had a chance for a bright future. Maybe only Robert Mondavi truly believed that Napa Cabernet would reach extraordinary heights.
Caymus consisted of a mom, pop and son team – that was it. They began with fermenting tanks that resembled redwood hot tubs and a manual wine transfer pump that operated like an antique exercise machine. Inglenook and Beaulieu gave them some of their used barrels, a kind of neighborly generosity that might seem remarkable today.
This Caymus 50th Anniversary 2022 vintage calls back to the excitement of the first Caymus – lush, dark, softly textured and balanced.
