This collectible wine is produced using select barrels of the finest Cabernet Sauvignon of the vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter tasting the 2008, we think it might actually be better than the heralded 2007 vintage.

Full-bodied and round with a bright and velvety tannin structure. Starts off slow, but then flies away. This is fabulous. Intense finish. Delicious today, but will be even better after 2013.\u003cbr\u003e\n94Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003cbr\u003e\nThe 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection is the first example of this cuvee to include Merlot (about 14%) in the blend. The Merlot component has given the wine a cocoa\/chocolate nuance to its black currant, licorice-infused fruit. The tannins are velvety soft and the wine is beautifully textured and full-bodied. It is ideal for drinking now and over the next 15 years.\u003cbr\u003e\n94Wine Spectator\u003cbr\u003e\nBeautifully crafted, rich, intense and powerful, yet supple, graceful and polished, offering a generous core of spicy blackberry, black licorice, wild berry and light cedary notes. Full-bodied and expressive, this is both approachable now and sure to improve for several years. Drink now through 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Logan, Caymus Vineyards","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47883369971936,"sku":"130485","price":409.99,"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_eb84eb05-152c-49b9-a076-9b347f1bbc60.jpg?v=1760563217","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/caymus-vineyards-special-selection-cabernet-sauvignon-2008-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
