Caymus is rocking the wine world in a whole new way, by obtaining premium fruit from the steep slopes of the Andes and cold-shipping the grapes back to Napa. They vinify and barrel age the wine at Caymus for 14 months in half new/half used French Oak, then age it their cellars for and additional 3 years!

A “Caymus style” of Mendoza Malbec. Defnitely an iron fist in a velvet glove. Rich fine tannin - a Mendoza dust fine texture. There is a very refined character to this wine, which is special and singular. A dense, dark red, this wine opens up with the scent of ripe plums and cherries, layered with hints of unsweetened baking chocolate. On the palate, it is powerful, concentrated, supple and persistent, with generous flavors of French oak that support but don’t dominate. The wine carries through to a complete finish, balanced and integrated with soft tannins that imbue it with both structure and balance.--Winery Notes
