1990 Caymus Vineyards Special Selection - Wine of the Year - 94 pts
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. Caymus Napa Valley is more representative of a standard Cabernet of Napa Valley, as it is a bit less precocious than the Special Selection, but still delivers big. Caymus prides itself on producing wines that are as approachable in youth as well at maturity. Both the “Napa Valley” and “Special Selection” Cabernets are produced under the winemaking hand of Chuck Wagner.

Wine Spectator

Wine Spectator 98 WS -  Wine of the Year - 94 pts The 1990 Cabernet Sauvignon-Special Selection appears to be the best Caymus has produced since 1986 and 1985. Two thousand six-bottle cases will be released in February 1994. The wine offers a saturated dark purple color and a rich spicy oaky nose backed up by generous quantities of jammy blackcurrants. Ripe highly extracted and full-bodied with copious amounts of sweet tannin and layers of fruit this is a knock-out flamboyantly-styled Cabernet for drinking over the next 15 or more years. RP CLEAR: bothBeautifully proportioned smooth plush rich and concentrated featuring tiers of complex cherry plum currant and spice flavors with sweet tannins and pretty toasty buttery oak and vanilla notes that linger on a long full finish. Best from 1996 through 2004. 1000 cases made. WS
