Attorney Somm discusses the history of Caymus, how Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon is made and its characteristics. Attorney Somm then explains why some people love Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon and others hate it. Attorney Somm then tastes the 2020 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon and gives his thoughts regarding the 2020 Caymus. Lastly, Attorney Somm provides three wine recommendations for alternative Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon that arguably offer more quality than Caymus Cabernet and which sell for a much lower price.
