A bold, full-bodied red wine produced from 100% Durif grapes grown in California's Suisun Valley, in a 750ml bottle. Scored 93 points by Wine Spectator, this Petite Sirah represents the Wagner family's venture beyond Napa into Suisun Valley.
Caymus Vineyards was founded in 1972 by Chuck Wagner and his parents in Rutherford, Napa Valley. For this project, the family began scouting Durif vineyards in Suisun Valley in early 2014, with vineyard management including crop thinning and canopy control to push grapes toward increased ripeness.
The nose shows deep blueberry, ripe boysenberry, earthy undertones, herbal notes, tobacco leaf, licorice stick and Cubeb pepper. The palate is lush and fruit-forward, with black cherry, ripe cassis, baking spices, toasted herbs and supple tannins. The finish is long, with vanilla from oak ageing and residual dark berry fruit.
