Mission Codename Veni Vidi Vici
CAYMUS!
Needs no introduction. Quite possibly the most recognized Cabernet from Napa. Love it or hate it, you have to recognize it as one of the most popular wines in the world. And the “Special Selection” bottling takes everything up a notch.
Each year, they set aside the best barrels of their Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley to produce Special Selection. Distinguished by extremely fine, velvety tannins and enjoyable upon release or with aging. A wine of structure with intense concentration of supple flavors and dark fruits.
Powerful and loaded with silky black fruit, buttery soft tannins, and a seamless integration of expensive oak. It serves up GOBS of blackberry, crème de cassis, black licorice, sweet violets, melted dark chocolate, plums, vanilla, and much more. Always opulent and a huge crowd pleaser, but also something you might want to just hoard for your own personal enjoyment.
Whatever you decide, we have VERY little and considering you rarely, if ever, find a Special Selection at this price - well, it’s probably just about gone if you’re still reading this.
