We have also secured long-term farming control—including planting, allowing us to select our preferred rootstock and clones—of Napa Valley vineyards with different slopes, elevation and climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe primary aromas are of black currants, blackberries, brown spices and dark-roasted coffee beans. In the mouth, the wine is lush and expansive, rich in berry fruit with a firm \"grip\" that makes the wine's texture an important part of its character. The finish is long and classic—ripe fruit dominates.\u003cbr\u003e\nOnly shipping discounts can be applied to this product, other promotional discounts do not apply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e97Wine Enthusiast\u003cbr\u003e\nBeautiful wine, lush and soft in the style of this warm vintage. It’s immediately enjoyable for the wealth of cherries, blackberries and raspberries, with a decadent edge of melted milk chocolate. Oak adds extra dimensions of smoky vanilla, caramel, butterscotch and gingerbread. Those who think they don’t like red wine will enjoy. Hard to tell if it has the stuffing for the long haul, but it’s gorgeous now and for the next six years.\u003cbr\u003e\n95Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003cbr\u003e\nEven richer and fuller than the regular bottling, but at the same time hedonistically and voluptuously styled is the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection. Dense ruby\/purple with low acidity and huge amounts of fruit, this is a seamless, full-bodied, classic Napa Cabernet Sauvignon to drink now and over the next 15-18 years.\u003cbr\u003e\n94Wine Spectator\u003cbr\u003e\nA superb Cabernet that's ripe, plush and deeply concentrated, with tiers of currant, plum, blackberry and spicy, cedary oak. Firmly tannic, lively and deep, revealing extra flavor nuances on the long, engaging finish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Logan, Caymus Vineyards","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47883370594528,"sku":"130496","price":1249.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/caymus-vineyards-special-selection-cabernet-sauvignon_1_efcfa5d3-f65a-4d4e-9f62-6939eeca91f7.jpg?v=1760563232","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/caymus-vineyards-special-selection-cabernet-sauvignon-2004-3l","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
