Wine of the Year 1994
CAYMUS Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley Special Selection 1990
Beautifully proportioned, smooth, plush, rich and concentrated, featuring tiers of
complex cherry, plum, currant and spice flavors, with sweet tannins and pretty, toasty,
buttery oak and vanilla notes that linger on a long, full finish. Best between 1996 and
2004.
