Caymus Suisun 2020 Walking Fool Red

If you're a fan of California wine history and exceptional red blends, you'll want to add the Caymus Suisun 2020 Walking Fool Red to your collection. This wine is crafted by Jenny Wagner, a member of the Wagner family that founded global icon Caymus, and pays tribute to her great-great-grandfather, Johannes Glos.

The Walking Fool Red is a testament to the Wagner family's commitment to producing top-quality wines, as they've identified a plot of land in Suisun Valley with special clay-loam soils that have the potential to be as famous as Oakville's Screaming Eagle one day. When you taste this wine, you'll experience the characteristic Caymus style of lavish red fruits and spices supported by a salivating band of acidity.

A silky scarlet red with luminous highlights, this wine opens with a lean earthiness—the scent of rustic wood mixes with sweet spice, a whiff of cigar box, dusty pavement and old leather, infused with garden ripe strawberries and cherries. The palate is smooth and lively, featuring flavors of juicy raspberry, the subtle tartness of cranberry, and notes of espresso and smoked meat. Underlying acidity makes this wine mouthwatering, while its tannins lend a gritty yet softly fine texture. On the finish: a trace of vibrant cranberry, luxurious cocoa and an extra kick of spice.
