Caymus Special Selection 2005

A powerhouse 2005 Napa Cabernet that commands attention with profound depth.

This 2005 Special Selection arrives with the weight and presence of a wine that knows its worth. The nose opens dramatically with concentrated blackberry liqueur and crushed cassis, while underneath lurks the mysterious darkness of espresso grounds and bitter chocolate. On the palate, the wine unfolds in waves - first the intense fruit, then layers of vanilla-laced oak that never overwhelm, finally revealing that characteristic Napa richness that coats every corner of your mouth. The tannins remain firm but approachable, suggesting this bottle has reached its drinking window while promising another decade of evolution. The finish stretches endlessly, leaving traces of dark chocolate and coffee that linger like a beautiful memory.

🍷 You want to celebrate a major milestone with a wine that delivers both immediate pleasure and profound complexity.
