Description

Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon 1999
Special Selection
owc
Bottle (6)


"The dense ruby/purple-colored 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection reveals an overlay of sweet, toasty new oak intermixed with blackberries, currants, and vanilla with hints of tar, chocolate, and espresso. This big, sweet, juicy Cabernet is not the most complex effort. It is overt, flamboyant, and consumer-friendly." (90 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Aug. 2002)

“Bright, deep ruby-red. Alluring ripe scents of black raspberry, blackberry, mocha, espresso and dark chocolate convey a slightly roasted quality without coming off as heavy. Suave, sweet, round and silky in the mouth, with a faintly liqueur-like quality leavened by harmonious acidity. The chocolate note carries through the wine but this fleshy midweight does not come across as overly sweet. Finishes with substantial even, dusty tannins and very good subtle length. This one grew on me as it opened in the glass.” (91 pts. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, March 2019)
