So every new release of the Caymus Napa Cabernet is a big deal. But a vintage like 2023 – which critics go so far as to compare to the freakishly great 1961 in Bordeaux – is something else altogether.
Now, as impressive as this was in the generally difficult 2022 vintage, imagine just how good it is in an all-time great vintage like 2023!
Here’s industry veteran and Wine Bible author Karen McNeil:
Every century, every place has its legendary vintages. I have no doubt that 2023 will go down as one of the most phenomenal vintages ever in Napa Valley. Every vintner I’ve talked to about 2023 has been nothing short of ecstatic.
