Tasting note: Caymus has one of the most enviable track records of any California winery. Having followed their Cabernet Sauvignons since the early seventies, I find it remarkable that this winery has never gone through a slump. Not many wineries, anywhere in the world, can match the Wagner family's consistent record of success. The 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits gobs of toasty oak and cassis fruit in a ripe, opulent, full-bodied, round, generous style that is ideal for drinking over the next decade. (89pts. Robert Parker)
Tasted: Dec. 1995
Score: 89
Drink: 1995-2005
Tasting note: Supple and harmonious black cherry, currant, plum and herb flavors pick up an olive and spice edge on aftertaste, where the tannins are polished. Appealing now through 1999. 25,000 cases made. (89pts. Wine Spectator)
Tasted: Sep. 30, 1995
