June 13, 2023 - Holding up fairly well, but on the downhill side of life. Fruit has receded, tannins fully integrated. Hardly tastes like Caymus. Drink up.

February 11, 2023 - Agree with previous comments. Still drinking great with very little detractions. Decanted for 2 hours and filtered plenty of sediment. Enjoyed with a hearty Italian dinner.

August 3, 2022 - Drinking beautifully. Great bouquet, the fruit has mellowed a bit but is super smooth and delicious with mellow tannins and a long finish. Still has some good life in it, but won't get better than this.
