Score 98/100 · Drink 1994-2004, Robert Parker, Aug 1994

Last Tasted 5/93 A California Cabernet Sauvignon legend, Caymus Vineyards' 1976 Special Selection is fully mature, without any signs of decline. This compellingly fragrant, super-rich Cabernet offers extraordinary decadence in its rich aromas and flavors. Its wonderfully vivid cassis and spicy new oak components have melded into a seamless, velvety-textured, super-opulent wine that must be tasted to be believed. It should last for 7-10 more years.
