Caymus-Suisun Grand Durif Petite Sirah

Price range: $79.97 through $94.97

Separated from Napa by just an invisible county line, Suisun Valley (which became an AVA in 1982) is still largely undiscovered. With its warm days and cool nights, this pastoral region reminds us of Napa Valley in the 1960s. Known for delicious stone fruits and walnuts, it is also gaining recognition for exceptional wine. Durif is synonymous with Petite Sirah, the widely grown grape in the region – we added “Grand” to the name for its grand style. With harmonious tannins, this wine is opulent, luxuriously soft and totally enjoyable.

Description

When we started producing Caymus-Suisun Grand Durif, we told ourselves that “the wine would have to be great, or would not bear the Caymus name.” Grapes from Suisun Valley have exceeded our highest expectations. Durif is synonymous with Petite Sirah – we added “grand” to the name for this wine’s luxurious softness.

Cabernet from the state of California

Caymus Vineyards is located in the center of the Napa Valley. Primary production is Cabernet Sauvignon grown on low-fertility soils on both the valley floor and the mountains that surround the valley. Attention to viticulture details, some dry farming, high-density plantings (with some blocks spaced as close as meter x meter), thinning of the yield, along with healthy vines and harvesting at an elevated degree of ripeness – all of these elements produce a unique and singular style of Cabernet.
