On a Sunday afternoon, we arrived early at 10am for a tasting. We made a reservation in advance and we're glad we did. The tasting runs $30 a person. Upon our arrival, we were given a complimentary glass of their Mer Soliel Barrel Fermented Chardonnay retailing at $32 a bottle. I REALLY enjoyed this. It's too bad they don't ship... More

We had a private tasting - wines were amazing - and the information was informative without being dry. We would have loved an opportunity to see the barrel storage, but that's not something they offer. The vineyard owner is very hands-on and was even on-site during our tasting - we brought home a signed bottle! More

This was my first time to Caymus and I was so glad that I did their sit down tasting. It was intimate with only enough room for 10 people but it wasn't a stuffy tasting at all. Our host was informative yet funny and by the end of the tasting, all of us at the table were talking and having... More

We made a reservation and instead of standing at a bar like in most wineries, they had a group of us at a table in the private room for the tasting. Much better wine and atmosphere than any other wineries we visited on our trip. When we purchased a few bottles after the tasting, they were very nice in including... More

We did a hosted tasting at 10AM. A little leary about starting that early, but it was a great tasting! Their wines are some of our favorites so just being there was fun for us. They are working on updating the property, so there is not that much to see yet, but the location is so lovely and the wine... More

We had a great visit with Caymus. The tasting room staff was so hospitipal, that I hated to leave. The wines speak for themselves, but the warm friendly staff really added to the visit. Thank you John and Esiquio! More

Caymus charges $30 for tasting of 4 wines. Our tasting was of the following: 2005 Napa Valley Suvignon Blanc, 2008 Napa Valley Zinfandel, 2009 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and 2009 Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon. From first to last these bottles retail as follows: $25, 32, 68 and 130. Each was excellent. The tasting was "moderated" by a fellow by the... More
