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!
