  • A big night with a vertical tasting of 6 Caymus Napa Cabs.
    1993 - Brown at rim, light in body, nice berry flavor, not much going on and a very shirt finish. Still nice
    1997 - Color was good, medium body, more fruit and softer than the 1993.
    2003 - A little better than the 1997, full body, round, nice mouth feel, good fruit flavors.
    2009 - very enjoyable - full body, fruit and a touch of vanilla at the end. The end lingered for a while. Delicious.
    2015 - This was the best, complex, round, drinking perfectly, good finish that lingered for a while. Nice balance of fruit and vanilla bean.
    2020 - Good, less complex than the 2015, sweet fruit and vanilla. This could be better in a year. Soft mouth feel, round, delicious.

    Great night!

  • Bought 6b for 30/b 25 years ago; this is #3. Muted purple with hint of amber edge; ripe plums on the nose and palate--fruit prominent but faded. Past prime and disappointing. Will try another before long. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. Quality, age, price: Notable.

  • Color and clarity is in good shape. Body is light. This was hard to drink for the first 20 minutes. Flavors were not good but got a Lot better. Later - upfront did not have anything going on but middle to end have a combination of light berry and fig. There is no Oak left and the finish is pleasant but comes And goes in waves.

  • Waited way to long. Couldn’t get through the bottle. Got 7 more. Hope they are all undrinkable. Why did these linger around the cellar.

  • Blue Dog with Steph - shared with Flo and Rose - glad this is my last bottle, as I don't think this one has improved since my last in 2013. It is different now, as oak has mellowed, but I am not getting any added complexity. Drink up if you have them. Great wine in a non-reserve bottling that has stood up well for a not so great year for Napa.
