Caymus Red Schooner Transit 3 Australia

Wine Spectator’s ‘Top 100 Most Exciting Wines of 2023″

You know that the Wagner family of Caymus fame refuses to rest on their laurels. The uber famous Napa Valley winemaking family continues to forge ahead with each passing vintage.  I’ve long suspected that they’re trying to make great wine from all over the world. The Schooner ‘Transit’ in Australia certainly seems like that’s the case!

Predominantly sourced from the prestigious Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale regions of Southern Australia, this Shiraz dominant blend that also features Cabernet Sauvignon is a BIG RED. It’s bold but very well put together and in my opinion, even features a little more flair to it than the Voyager. A mix of ripe red fruits, bramble, and spice, this is definitely a unique bottling from the legendary family.

In only their third vintage making this wine, but they’re already starting to cash in. This baby was included in Wine Spectator’s ‘Top 100 Most Exciting Wines of 2023’ and that version wasn’t even as well constructed as the new Transit 3. The Wagner family simply can’t be slowed down!
