Caymus Vineyards

We had a wonderful tasting at our own quiet table in the barrel room. Your tasting host will probably bring you pours of a couple special, even older vintage bottles to add to your experience. Best yet, as most wineries, you are discounted the cost of the tasting if you order wine during your stay, which of course we did.

The MOST Amazing tasting I have ever had!!! Bill our wine expert was knowledgeable and told us the Caymus family story! I loved how he explained to us the stories behind the wines! He treated us like family. We have always loved Caymus but as of today We are Caymus lovers for life!!! ❤️❤️❤️. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience and the highlight of our Napa trip!

What a fantastic tasting! We were so lucky to have Esiquio as our host. He is so knowledgeable about the wines, and as a local, he was also able to share some of the history of this area. The winery is beautiful. Our tasting was outside, in the shade. We could not have asked for a better experience!

My friends from Sweden and I had the best possible experience at Caymus. The hosts' knowledge of the wines, the property, and the Wagner family was flawless. The service we received was second to none. The renovations at the property are also excellent and tastefully done. Can't wait to come back!

What a tranquil experience. The grounds are beautiful, the service is amazing. Everyone made you feel at home. You can actually enjoy a glass of wine at the bar just because the wine is so good which is not common at most wineries unless you're reserved for a tasting. I celebrated my 50th Birthday and they gave me the a complimentary 50th anniversary bottle of wine. They went out of their way to make it a special experience.

I let others thoughts and opinions get into my head. There are a lot of haters of Caymus wine, but it has been one of my favorites for a while now. So, I went to this tasting sort wondering if I’d be disappointed. All of my trepidation was quickly dispelled during our tasting last week. Wow!!!!! Firstly, the winery itself was absolutely GORGEOUS!!! We were seated outside in a very secluded garden like setting. It was so quiet, peaceful and serene! Then, the wow factor…the barrel room!!! Photos just don’t do it justice. It’s a place I could find a lot of peace just existing in. Our wine taster- Bill was fantastic!!! We were there celebrating my mom’s 85th birthday and he was so warm and sincere towards her. He was laidback and relaxed but still professional and knowledgeable. The wine??? It DID NOT disappoint and is still one of my top favorites. I really don’t care about the haters. We all have our tastes and preferences and I’m smitten over their wine. Bill gave my mom a bottle of Caymus which was REALLY special. She is on a fixed income and unless we buy something like this for her- she could never afford it. She really appreciated this as a gift!!

Wow….can’t say enough great things about this experience. The grounds are beautiful and the ambiance during the wine tasting experience is so, so delightful; Caymus makes you feel right at home. Lastly, all the personnel are very knowledgeable and so personable. If you want to visit a winery in Napa Valley, this is the ticket.

Cost-effective place ever! So nice place to taste wines. Friendly staffs and if you buy wines more than 50$, you can waive tasting fees. Strongly recommend;)

It's safe to say that there is no shortage of wineries when visiting Napa Valley, so when I took a trip to visit Napa, I was overwhelmed with which winery to visit. Lost on which to visit, my friend recommended that we check out the Caymus winery. I'm a fan of reds specifically Cabernet Sauvignon so it was an easy choice to add this to our list of places to check out. After some quick look up on Yelp, I saw that Caymus has two wineries, one is in Napa Valley while the other is located in the neighboring Suisun Valley. Like everything after covid, prior reservation is a must, and while Suisun is closer to where we were staying in Fairfield there just wasn't reservations available for the day we wanted to visit. We did get lucky with securing a reservation for Caymus Napa Valley. Reservations were easy to make through the tock website with each tasting costing $50. All participants must be 21 years and over, and no outside food/picnicking is permitted. Groups 13 or larger is requested to email Caymus directly. Caymus is known for their Cabernet and the winery is in Rutherford off the highway 29. Our reservation was for 9:30 and we arrived at 9 to make sure we were not late. Parking was easy to find, and they even have 4 chargers on site which was great for us because my friend drives an EV. We checked in at the reception and was given a wine glass that will be used for our tasting. We were also told that 2024 is the fiftieth vintage of Caymus so everything was designed to commemorate this event. We were directed to the barrel room where we sat down and was presented with the wines for the day. Now for the good stuff, the tasting consisting of a flight of 5 wines. We got to try a Mer Slieil Chardonnay, The Walking Fool Red Blend, Transit 3 Red Blend, Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon, and a 2019 Caymus Special Selection Cabernet. Our sommelier was Jen, and she was both friendly and knowledgeable. She explained not only the wine making process but educated us on the tasting profile as well as the history of Caymus. She told us that she's being with the company for over ten years and prior to that she worked with a different winery in Napa. My palette is not refined enough to decern the faint notes accompanied in wines. I've only started drinking wine five years ago, but I do know what I like to drink. Of the five wines sampled, I loved the Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon, which wasn't a surprise since it is their most popular. I also enjoyed the Transit 3 Red which Jen informed us are made with grapes grown in Australia and shipped to Napa for aging. A big surprised though was that I was not a fan of the Caymus Special Selection even though it was the one I was looking forward to. I heard that it's an even split between the drinkers that prefer the Caymus Special Selection vs the standard Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon. Thanks Jen for being such a great sommelier. After we wrapped up our tasting and ready to leave, we were informed that if we prefer to buy any wines the gift shop is in the next room and if we were to purchase wine, the cost of the tasting would be applied to the purchased wine. This was great since we were looking to grab some wine to celebrate the 50th vintage. We ended up getting a set of the Transit series which includes Transit 1, 2, and 3 as well as the Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon. Lastly for our Pokémon Go players, no gym in the area but there is a Pokéstop, so spin away as you try out the different blends.

Super cool winery They don't charge you for the tasting if you purchase a few cases The winner serve that the perfect temperature and the staff is very knowledgeable and lots of history Lots of good scenery to take photos of If you do not buy any wine, it's $50 a person but you get to keep the glass

We had extraordinary experience at Caymus Vineyards. We enjoyed all of the complex delicious wines from a Sauvignon Blanc to a Chardonnay delicious Cabernet and my favorite " The walking fool" We love the fact that they would waive your tasting fee of $50 a person if you spend $200 on wine we had no problem doing that . We plan to have a bottle of wine each night that we're here. It is just that good. We actually look forward to coming back .

We had a fantastic visit to Caymus over Thanksgiving! We love their reds and in the their incredible tasting room, they are even better! The grounds are beautifully decorated, their staff has the best service along with history and stories, and did I mention their wine? Phenomenal! Stop in; you will have a fantastic time. Don't forget to make a reservation!

Had a wonderful time at Caymus doing an 8 person wine tasting we had booked in advance. The property is stunning, beautiful greenery all around and the entrance is very photogenic as well. We checked in and were taken back to the garden area where they have tables set up for the outdoor tasting. There are even blankets if it gets a bit chilly! Gary was our wine specialist and he was amazing, very knowledgeable about the history of Caymus and down to earth. Would highly reccomend a visit for the great wine, scenery, and people at this spot!

My visit to Caymus Vineyards was truly an amazing experience! I had been wanting to go for so long, as it's my favorite wine--the one that friends and family always buy me for Christmas, my birthday, and even Boss's Day. I had a bit of trouble securing a wine tasting reservation before our trip, but I was determined and kept trying until I finally succeeded! Once we arrived, we were greeted by our wonderful host, Elizabeth, who was absolutely fantastic (and yes, I mean AMAZING!). She made our tasting experience unforgettable. We had the pleasure of sampling a selection of wines, including Zinfandels, the 50th Anniversary Cabernet, and a beautiful Sauvignon Blanc. I was pleasantly surprised to discover a Sauvignon Blanc that I didn't even realize they produced--it was delightful! I can't quite remember the name, but it starts with an "E," and I would highly recommend it. Overall, Caymus Vineyards exceeded my expectations, and I left with a deeper appreciation for their wines. If you're a wine lover or just visiting Napa, this place is a must-visit. Cheers to a memorable experience!

My favorite winery we visited during our weekend in Napa. It's perfectly classy but snobby. Beautiful inside with the wines barrels, but the most relaxing outdoor. We each were assigned to a person who explained each wine in our tasting as we went. It felt very personal and attentive. There's also a waived tasting fee if you spend $100 or more in the shop. A must visit if you're in Napa!

Jack Wagner says that wine is civilized. If four strangers come together around a bottle of wine, they walk away as friends. Tracy was my wine specialist today and I had a great time learning about the Caymus history, brand names and wines. Tracy was courteous and professional. The property is beautiful and offers indoor and outdoor seating. If you like to enjoy a glass, there is a bar that will pour you one. Overall, I am very pleased to have the opportunity to learn about this legendary wine family. Oh, they let me keep the anniversary glasses. By the way, I was able to schedule my appointment on the day of. Many thanks for everyone's amazing hospitality!

This Vineyard was definitely on our list of places to visit but when originally trying to book a reservation they were completely full and we were devastated. We had heard so many good things about this Vineyard. Fortunately, my husband decided to call once we arrived in Napa and they had a cancellation so was able to get us in Yay for us. The Vineyard has stunning scenery , beautiful English gardens everywhere for your eye to rest on sprinkled about are tables, gazebos and other shaded areas to enjoy your tastings outside. It has the original residence of the founder of the Vineyard showing their humble beginnings. We were able to have our tasting in the wine barrel room which was such a treat. It was a little chilly, of course, and they provided you with the most luscious blankets in a dimly lit romantic setting, our sommelier was very knowledgeable of wines and the family history of the Vineyard, which is fascinating. By comparison this is a small vineyard but they have some of the best wines. We favored their Chardonnay and Cab over all those we tasted elsewhere! They don't charge ahead of your tasting since If you make a purchase equal to your tasting fee then it's free! We ended up buying 6 bottles and they package it for travel right on the spot! Treat yourself here if in the area.

I was in Napa Valley and looking for one of the many vineyards to choose from. My eyes landed on Caymus and I became giddy like little school girl. Caymus is on my short list of favorite vineyards. When we arrived typical like most places the grounds are well manicured and parking wasn't an issue. We weren't able to get scheduled in the barrel room but the bar area was busy with many folks where you could choose from a short list of their recommended wines. I ended of splitting the special choice and the 2021 Cab. Both very very good! It was a great experience chatting with the help about the wines and the folks mingling around the wine bar area. After our tasting and purchasing a bottle of the 2021 Cab, we explored the outside grounds where you could choose to sit and take it all in. There were assortments of small group parties which added to the overall experience. Overall what a great experience. Definitely want to come back but it maybe a minute because there are so many other Napa vineyards to test out.

It's a truly a must visit place. Caymus is one of my favorite wine producers from California and experiencing the place where it's coming from is delightful.

Augie has a great sense of humor and provided a welcoming experience for our wine tasting! We were celebrating my cousins birthday and he just made us feel really special. Huge Caymus Vineyard fans!

We visited Napa back in September and I am finally getting around to leaving reviews. Caymus has always been a favorite wine of mine and this was our first winery visit during our trip! It was the perfect place to start. They have one of the most beautifully landscaped properties out of all the wineries we visited. So many blooming flowers, perfectly trimmed hedges, and massive trees to shade you during your outdoor wine tasting. We did the wine tasting in the garden with host Gary. He was very personable and one of those hosts that clearly loves his job. He told us all of the family history of the winery and kept our tasting at a great pace. It was also nice to be able to "swap" your tasting fees into a bottle of wine (which we later enjoyed back at our Airbnb). We would definitely come back!

Spending a few days in Napa would not be complete without a stop at Caymus. It's been a favorite of ours for a long time. Having enjoyed Caymus Cab Sauv as a wedding gift got us hooked. The wine tasting building was really nice and contemporary. There were lots of sitting areas for tasting while overlooking barrels of wine. One tasting area was in a room behind a glass wall where the barrels are kept. Our host was welcoming and knowledgeable and she led through the mellow white wines before knocking us over with their powerful and delicious reds Their tasting menu included wine glasses and a nice wine bag (with a purchase). In the end, our host reminded us that taking home a wine would be more memorable than the wine tasting receipt. Sold, we took home a liter of Caymus Cabernet. Tasting fees at $50 each was waived. We were so happy to come here. We will return.

Wow what an experience. Wines are great. Hospitality is great. Steve our host is great. Definitely recommend going. Not only tasting fee can be 100% applied to purchase. What an experience and deal!! Go make a reservation! Ask for Steve to be your host.

I really enjoyed my wine tasting experience at Caymus. It's a beautiful space both inside and outside leading up to the front entrance. It has a gorgeous ambiance inside with the floor to ceiling glass windows showcasing a huge barrel room. I like that there aren't too many tables so that it doesn't feel cramped inside. That said, if you plan to go, you need to make reservations in advance. One additional note- if you make an afternoon tasting reservation, don't be late to this tasting because they're rather strict about reservation times. I love that they provide Fiji waters for you during your tasting. It's a very fun, hands off tasting experience yet informational at the same time. We ended up buying two bottles of wine which waived the tasting fee. Major plus! We were also able to keep the wine glasses we tasted out of which was such a nice surprise at the end. They even gave us a bag to bring the wine glasses home. Such a thoughtful and thorough wine tasting experience. I would love to come back again to the Napa location or Suisun Valley location with friends. Highly recommend!

Thank you Michel and thank you Caymus! Our tasting em was perfect, it started subtly with us learning little bits about the wine and the people and with each wine came a new story, a few hints about the wine, and some history. Round after round we became more interested and connected and each tasting of your excellent wines brought our more laughter and more discussion about the wines. We ended on a high note with your most famous red. What a wonderful experience. Thank you all for being so down to earth and so patient with us as we cackled with laughter doing exactly what wine was meant to do-helping us blow off steam and bringing us closer together before we left the next day to head back to FL to face a hurricane. Michel you were an excellent host and we really appreciated you!

Caymus has the best wines! The 50th anniversary batch is my favorite. Went for the tasting experience and Gary was so fun and attentive. Would definitely go back. Thanks Gary for our wine tasting experience!

I would give this winery 6 stars if I could. The extra one is special though, as we were guests of one of their Regional Sales Managers. The Sales Manager made our reservation for us, so there were no problems. The grounds are beautiful, and the barrel room is quite a unique treat to behold. (It also makes a great photo!). We were warmly greeted and seated immediately. Our Wine Educator, Zach, was truly the finest employee we experienced during the entire week-long vacation. He went above and beyond with his approachable and friendly manner. He provided an unexpected tasting, not on the menu, and an additional pour of their Special Selection before departing. The Gift Shop employee provided a wineskin and box to accommodate the bottle we were given (by the Sales Manager) on our way out. We love Caymus Cabernet and highly recommend the wine and the winery. Our overall experience was outstanding!

If you're in Napa Valley and you're looking for a phenomenal vineyard with amazing wine, Caymus is the place to be. My husband and I love Caymus wines and made a trip out to Napa specifically to visit this vineyard. Still family owned and operated, and they serve some of the best quality wines. We just came back from a wine tasting and I couldn't wait to write this review. Our wine host Tracy was the best!!! Very knowledgeable, friendly, professional and hospitable. She really made our day. My husband and I loved this place and we will definitely be returning to Caymus, and recommending this place to all our friends and family. Thank you Caymus for serving the best wine ever, and thank you Tracy for your hospitality!

First time visiting Caymus and it did not disappoint!!! Whitney took care of us and quickly pulled us into the history of the Wagner family which added beautiful stories to the fantastic wine that we were tasting. My wife and I were celebrating our wedding anniversary, and Caymus came through with the best service, ambiance, and wine!! We will definitely be back our next visit to Napa!

Our wine guide, Elizabeth, was the best. She even tried to get the owner to come over, unfortunately, he didn't. But, they did give us the wine glasses and a birthday bottle of wine in a special bag for the plane. The wine was really good. We left buying at least six bottles. Definitely big production with small town feel. Service and accommodation for the tasting were relaxing.

Caymus was the second vineyard we visited on a recent trip to Napa. Being a big fan of their wines. this was a must see for us. It did not disappoint. The facilities are so beautiful and the service was good. Not to say anything about their wine of course! My favorite is their Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection. I had never had their rosé before which to tell the truth I didn't enjoy as much. I am not a white wine drinker, but there are some rosé I do enjoy more, like the Belle Glos one for example. Which incidentally is made by a member of the Wagner family as well, so if you haven't tried his wines, do so! You will thank me later. They are fantastic and the bottles are very nice. People would be impressed if you show up with one of those to a dinner party. But this is a review about Caymus not Belle Glos lol. We had a full tasting which took a couple of hours. I don't believe they have tour tastings like we did at other wineries. You sit in their hall and a attendant pours the wine and talk about them. I did not like that she had other the parties that were seating very close to us, so we could hear everything they were saying. We did not have her undivided attention and it took her a bit long to pour our next wine. I feel she was dedicated more time to the other party. Maybe they were more fun hahaha. We did have a good time so we didn't mind as much but wedid have, another tasting schedule so we had to rush little bit in the end, but it worked out. I highly recommend to do this winery. And if you buy wines they waive the tasting fee which works out great because it's about as much as a bottle of Caymus cab so it's a win-win!!

Embark on a sensory adventure like no other as you step into Caymus.

Not sure we have ever had a greater experience here; and they have all been great ! We had a very private area for Mother's Day and Donna was over the top a story teller about each wine and its history ! Loved it and will be back again and will ask for Donna !

This is a non stuffy place for tasting or wine by the glass at the bar. Michael and Luis at the bar were super friendly! My kind winery and people. Had the same experience during my last couple of visits before the remodel. The younger wine store cashier did not give out the same vibe. It maybe a generational thing. So I wouldn't hold it against him or the brand. Ha! Love the new setup.

Wow. Luxurious without taking out quality and being friendly to your wallet. The best wine tasting I had. Love supporting family businesses that has not been overtaken by a big conglomerate. Love the rich history and the wine price points are so affordable. If you were to do a wine tasting please ask for Whitney she did an immersive tasting where your taste bud dictate selection. We did a blind tasting and it was so amazing. Lots of great people, atmosphere, rich history and WHITNEY made it memorable. Her enthusiasm for Caymus and the love for the family was felt. My heart exploded with Whitney's explanation of the family heritage of Caymus. A must to visit and u get the tasting fee waived to buy wine...yes!! Free tasting to buy awesome wine.

Luis was the best host ever very knowledgeable about the grounds and history of Caymus, made us feel so welcomed... will def return and ask for Luis to host us!

By far the best stop in Napa- hands down! You can't go wrong with Caymus, whether if you've never tried it or have, u have to stop and visit them! Their customer service is top notch. They made us feel very welcomed and were very accommodating. Aussie, our wine expert, was beyond wonderful!!! We really appreciated the time he took with us and knowledge he shared on the wine. He left us wanting to come back again and we will be sure to recommend to our friends and family. Thank you Caymus for such excellent service and wines!!

Our visit to Caymus Vineyards in Napa Valley was truly unforgettable, thanks to Whitney. She was incredibly personable, engaging, and went above and beyond to make our wine tasting experience the highlight of our Napa trip. Whitney's warmth and genuine passion for Caymus wines shone through as she guided us through each tasting, making the experience both enjoyable and memorable. We come from New Orleans, Louisiana, and left Caymus already looking forward to our next visit, knowing it'll be hard to top this one. If you're visiting Napa, make sure to stop by Caymus and ask for Whitney--she'll make your experience extraordinary!

This was definitely our favorite wine tasting experience we have done so far in the wine country! Our host Zac was very friendly and sociable and very knowledgeable about wine and the brand. Everyone was so incredibly nice they make you feel like family! The grounds are gorgeous and peaceful. We had such a great time we went home with several bottles of wine. And they let you bring home your glass! Caymus is a family favorite and my dad often buys many bottles for family events so he was very jealous we got to visit the vineyard. I told him he will just have to make a trip himself. This was so much fun! Thank you!'

Caymus Vineyards located in the center of the Napa Valley primary production being Cabernet Sauvignon as well as a selection Zinfandel and Petite Sirah this makes for the perfect stop if you like red wine. Family owned winery Chuck Wagner started Caymus Vineyards along side he's parents and has made a good name in the wine industry. Came here for a special occasion and this winery was highly recommended to us. I fell in love with their red wines but for my taste the highlight was the Malbec Argentina and the Grand Durif Petite Zirah I love that crisp taste not overpowering but just the right ripeness. This is a must stop when I'm the Napa Valley. Customer service is excellent from the concierge to our hostess, I was in love with this winery. Presentation wise is perfect I love the Garden area, I was here with a big group but will definitely come back with hubby just to enjoy the Garden and have a relaxing evening. A definite 5 star winery.

This is more of a tasting vs a vineyard tour so there are limited spaces to explore. That being said the areas they do have are stunning. Lush florals, greenery throughout, and immaculate presentation where everything remains tidy and clean. There are some beautiful areas outside where you can sit and enjoy great wine. Elizabeth our taste guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. You can tell in her excitement of the wines that caymus is not the corporate brand you'd expect but a well ran family brand with exceptional values that treat their employees right. Like most wineries definitely make a reservation ahead of time.

The stars that you see, for this winery are no accidents. The wine is velvety, delicious, succulent, and full bodied. The flavors linger days after you leave this tasting. The hype is real, but what's more real are the wine makers and the folks who work at this wine tasting room. Zach was fantastic. Ernest, kind, and filled with knowledge about the wine and the history of wine at Cayman s. I was really impressed by his willingness and openness to learn about different cultures, and was a really great conversationalist too. Got to meet some fun regulars who really made the day so memorable. Can't wait to go back.

Experience: 5/5 Donna was DIVINE! She curated our experience and simply made our trip. She sat us in the "library" and meticulously walked us through each wine that we tasted. She inspired us with the history of Caymus and really sold the history of the vineyard. I cannot overstate how memorable the experience was for our group. I would recommend Caymus to anyone on god's green earth. In addition, they let you keep the wine glasses you taste in, and when we went to leave they said "we'd prefer you go home with a bottle of wine than a tasting fee" and waive tasting fees if you buy a bottle of wine (equivalent to the tasting fee value). Ask questions about the history of the vineyard...you will not be disappointed. Taste: 5/5 Caymus has a long-standing history in the Napa region. However, they source grapes from all over the globe and in particular within 8 of the AVAs in the Napa valley. The wines were superb. We did not taste a bad wine. Please treat yourself and go to Caymus. Ask for Donna. Enjoy. With Love, Cole

We had the most incredible experience doing the 10 a.m. tasting here. Everything at Caymus is a dream - the staff is kind, knowledge, hilarious, warm, friendly. Thank you for kicking off our girls trip on a high note. The grounds are gorgeous - they're farmers first and it shows. I could have spent all day on this vineyard. The wine was DELICIOUS. Every glass had something special, we were so happy to be there and expanding our pallets. Only request... ship to NJ so our tasting could have been free! Cannot wait to return.

Probably the best tasting experience I've ever had (and Ive had a lot). First of all the barrel room where we tasted was absolutely STUNNING!! Hannah, who led our tasting was so lovely and informative!! We could have stayed there talking to her for hours. The grounds are so beautiful. I honestly couldn't have imagined a better experience and i had high expectations because this is my favorite wine.

After seeing Caymus in Costco and hearing about it from another couple staying at our B&B, I called them to see if they had same day reservations and THEY DID!! No credit card required to book either. Caymus is a beautiful property in Rutherford. I was pleased they offered free level 2 charging for my Tesla. Tastings are $50 each person but waived if you buy wine of that same value. The wife and I had an awesome experience with Donna who served us. The wines were great and she accommodated my wife's tastes since she's not a fan of white wine. We were seated outdoors and the staff even moved an umbrella so the sun wasn't beating down on our faces. I would highly recommend coming the Caymus when visiting Napa Valley. TIP: Donna told us even if you don't see any reservation availability on Tock that you should still call to check. That's how we were able to come in and Tock was not showing availability for the next two weeks.

Came here to for the first time for my dad's birthday. We were treated to a tasting in the barrel room which was a large room full of wine in barrels. The room was on the colder side, but they provided us with super warm blankets to keep us comfortable throughout the tasting. We were treated to tastings of multiple different wines, all of which were absolutely incredible. They were doing a special wherein shipping was only $1 so naturally we ordered multiple bottles to ship back home. Can't wait to drink them during a special occasion!

This place had the best customer service, especially for military and birthdays! They made the day absolutely wonderful! The wine was so good, and the customer service was amazing! The wine cellar is actually really cool to take a picture of just because of the way, the lighting is and all the barrels. It looks really spectacular! And then, when you sit outside, the garden area is really pretty, and they have a sort of overhang full of greenery that you can take pictures of! The gardens are so pretty! I highly recommend this place! They went above and beyond!

Came on a Friday late morning. Unfortunately it was raining outside so we were seated indoors. I tasted Caymus cab once a year ago and obsessively fell in love. So I came to Napa for this vineyard and this vineyard only. And boy was I not disappointed. We tasted 7 wines, we bought 5, including the 2018 vintage cab (the most magical wine I've ever tasted). I'm not into whites as much, but the Sauvignon blanc from Emmolo was divine. Our taster guide was nice. Though I know nothing about wines and typically just want to taste and keep it moving, I actually do care about Caymus wines and paid attention. Afterwards we took a few pics and left. It was short and sweet but I loved it! (Though biased given my obsession with these wines). We even got to keep their glasses! I may turn this into an annual trip. I need their wines annually.

Wow the winery looks absolutely stunning after their remodel a year ago. We were so lucky to be able to sit in the barrel room for our tasting. The impressive collection of barrels, the mood lighting, the vastness of space made us feel like rockstars. On top of that, all the wines we tasted were absolutely delicious. Our server weaved story telling into our tasting and it was such a delight to learn about the history of the family and their wines. 100% would come back again.

Beautiful winery with a Zen garden perfect for a weekend wine tasting. We had their flight of Pinot Noir from Napa and Sonoma county and also had their Rose. If you are looking for good wine and a place to relax this is your spot. Customer service was excellent and made me feel comfortable at all timescale. Do need to come back to this place though. 5 stars for sure.

We were lucky enough to sit in the would be barrel room, the space was expansive and had beautiful red floors. The new space had a modern and clean feel while also being homey and inviting. The staff gives blankets so if you're feeling a bit chilly don't hesitate to ask for one! Donna was a real treat, she is knowledgeable and knows how to banter and liven up the room. Caymus always has great drinking wines and everything we had was smooth and had great finishes. Donna told stories about the winemaker family's and who was in charge of which line of wine. It was great to listen to the story of the land and see the family's dedication to bottling beautiful wines. Of course everything we drank was delicious with a wide selection of vintages and recent bottles. We would love to come back once food and snacks can be served!

What can you say? It's Caymus. Their Special Selection is probably the best wine you can buy. It's probably underrated still and consistently one of the best premium wines anyone can enjoy. With varying tastes and food pairings you can argue for other wines as "the best" but Special Selection is in the conversation of greatest Red ever. It's a must see vineyard and their wines are amazing. They are on the list of must see Napa vineyards for wine tasting. I set the bar for great cabs with Caymus. They are the bar for greatness for me. Their wines are so drinkable, you can tell they are made of grapes (weird but true... you'll see) and they are memorable. You remember how good they are. I remember a trip to east coast... Caymus was the wine on the table for a special dinner... everyone raved about it. It's truly a centerpiece wine at any table. Enjoy.

What a stylish and beautiful winery! It feels like a resort. My husband and I shared a delicious tasting while our family relaxed on the grounds of this gorgeous veneyard. The experience was above and beyond of what one would expect from a winery. The wine was superb. We will definitely be back!

We went to Caymus with family and had a great experience for our first wine tasting. Dylan was very knowledgeable and went out of his way to make our experience a great and memorable one. He even walked us around the grounds after the tasting. We will surely return again, if we return to Napa.

This was our first winery destination for the day and we were really blown away by the giant barrel room. It looked so cool and I can definitely see the appeal of doing a tasting in the room. For our tastings, we had some amazing wines and we ended up taking a couple bottles home. We loved that they have the buy a certain amount and tastings are waived because it definitely was an incentive for us to buy more bottles. The person doing our tasting was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions about the wine and also allowed us to try some more in case we wanted to purchase. Overall we enjoyed our time here

Let's be real here. Caymus has done an excellent job with branding. The standard Caymus is great crowd pleasing wine, but probably not living up to its price tag of about $80 per bottle. The flagship Special Selection is a great wine also, but again probably not worth the price. You're paying big time for the name and marketing. The winery is nice and I come here every time I'm in Napa for two reasons: 1. The fabulous Zinfandel at $44 2. The equally fabulous wine bags they give out Makes great gifts. The actual tasting is quite good. I'm not sure what it costs now. 5 years ago it was $50, you got a free wine glass and if you bought 2 bottles, you would get it refunded. Most winery have discontinued this practice. Not sure if it still exists here.
