Caymus-Suisin - Grand Durif 2021 750ml

Caymus-Suisun Grand Durif 2021 is a bold and opulent red wine that showcases the untapped potential of the Suisun Valley. Produced by the Wagner family, famous for their work in Napa Valley, this wine represents a spirit of exploration.

The Suisun Valley sits just across the county line from Napa and shares a similar maritime climate. With warm days and cool nights, the region is ideal for ripening grapes, reminding many of the rustic charm of Napa in the 1960s. While the area is historically known for walnuts and stone fruits, its rich soils are perfect for growing top-quality Durif, the grape widely known as Petite Sirah.

The name "Grand" was chosen to reflect the wine's impressive style. In the glass, it offers a luxurious texture that is incredibly soft. The tannins are harmonious, creating a drinking experience that is totally enjoyable upon release. This bottle proves that the soils of Suisun Valley impart a special character that rivals its more famous neighbor.
