Description

This exceptional Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection magnum comes in collectable wood box and signed bottle from world renowned wine maker, Chuck Wagner. 

Robert Parker gave this wine 98 points!

Wine Spectator gave it 96 points.

Chuck Wagner sets aside the best barrels of Cabernet to produce Special Selection ? the only wine in the world honored twice as Wine Spectator magazine?s ?Wine of the Year.? Pushing the limits of richness and concentration, this Cabernet is enjoyable upon release or improves with aging a decade or more. Fine, luxurious tannins give structure to intense flavors of supple cacao bean, chocolate and dark fruits.

Caymus Special Selection is the flagship wine of the Wagner family and is comprised of the very best barrels of the vintage. This wine is not produced in difficult years.Opaque crimson color, intriguing nose of freshly tilled Napa vineyard soil. The presence of this wine includes fine textural components balanced by an array of flavors including; ripe cherry, dried rose petal, cacao, mocha and cassis. A seamless, rich and alluring,youthful Napa Cabernet. I find this vintage perfectly complex and balanced. This will go down in our books as a difficult year that yielded a small production of very fine wine.
