Caymus-Suisun 2020 Grand Durif Red Wine
Winemaker Notes
Suisun (su-soon) Valley, which lies to the Southeast of Caymus, is only a 40-minute drive and reminds the Wagner family of Napa Valley 40 years ago. With its warm days and cool nights, the region is known for delicious stone fruits and walnuts – increasingly, it is also gaining recognition for its wine. Durif is synonymous with Petite Sirah, the widely grown grape in the region – they added “Grand” to the name of the Suisun-grown Durif because it has a grand style. With lush textural tannins, this wine is rich, supple, and totally enjoyable.
Critical Acclaim
WW 91 Wilfred Wong of Wine.com
COMMENTARY: Why doesn’t the world love Durif? Perhaps it is because the grape variety is barely known (except “geeks” in the wine biz). The 2018 Caymus-Suisun Grand Durif is powerful and lasting on the palate. TASTING NOTES: This wine is not shy as it surrounds the palate with ripe, grapey fruits and wood. Enjoy it with wood-smoked short ribs, and bring a good appetite to the table. (Tasted: January 29, 2021, San Francisco, CA)
