  This 88 Caymus Cab still has much to offer. The Bad: the cork broke off while opening; a noticeable brownish color at the edges while decanting, and when I first tasted the wine (prior to decanting), the fruit was almost tasteless. The Very Good: the wine came alive with rich fruits (after decanting & breathing for 3+ hours) and had a refined & delicate finish. Overall, tasteful, smooth, & a very nice finish.

  Nose shows oaky vanilla and roasted fruit. Palate is round with roasted, jammy fruit. Lower acidity. One note. Not integrated.

  Well past it's prime, really not worth drinking.

  Popped and poured to enthusiastic guests. Some fruit, but not anywhere near as big as a typical Caymus cab. Still not a bad bottle. It was earthy and showed it's age, but not flawed at all.
