Questions
Why is 2022 special for Caymus?
It marks the winery's 50th anniversary — the Wagner family has made Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon every single year since founding the estate in 1972 with just 240 cases.
Where do the grapes come from?
A range of Napa's sub-appellations, from cooler Coombsville in the south to warmer Calistoga in the north, plus Rutherford and Oakville — valley-floor fruit gives lushness, hillside fruit gives structure.
Is Caymus still family-owned?
Yes — it remains 100% family-run, with the next generation of the Wagner family now involved in the farming and winemaking.
