Caymus Vineyards - Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 (750ml) AtlantiqueWinemaker Notes A rich, dense ruby color, hints at the dark fruit nose of blackberry and currant that carries through to the palate, interwoven with complex aromas of black licorice, anise and crme de cassis. On the palate, the wine opens up to reveal an earthiness, with brown spice, cigar box and ripe dark fruits that linger throughout the extracted and long finish. The texture is opulent and rich, yet has a velvety quality with supple density. Rich,
but lacking the delicacy of a great vintage
Tasting Room:
The color is intense ruby red
roasted venison and dry-aged beef
with the slightest glow of hay in the sunlight
The vines are cane pruned and meticulously
93 points Rober Parker's Wine Advocate: "For Shiraz fans
A versatile pairing to Mediterranean and Italian cuisines
truffle and softening new French oak spices
Yellow in color with greenish reflections
The balance is good with a slightly tart finish
But the complexity of Alsatian soils is quite similar to that of Burgundy
