Caymus Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon - 1984 (750ml) premal sweet fruitThis wine has consistently been a crowd pleaser, with its impressive dark color, rich, jammy, cedary, licorice, chocolatey, cassis, and olive like aromas and flavors, and full bodied, unctuously textured style. It is a big, chewy, flashy, oaky style of Cabernet. Although fully mature, there are no signs of decline. Robert Parker 90 points
