About Chuck Wagner:
Chuck Wagner was born into a family of farmers and winemakers with deep roots in Napa Valley. He was just 19 when he started Caymus Vineyards with his late parents, Charlie and Lorna, and they spent many wonderful years working side-by-side. After fifty harvests, Chuck continues to make two renowned Cabernet Sauvignons, Caymus Napa Valley and Caymus Special Selection. Several years ago, he launched Bonanza, a California Cabernet Sauvignon that reflects a spirit of discovery and celebrates good wine as a simple pleasure of life. As the Wagners began farming and making wine in Suisun Valley, Chuck also introduced Caymus-Suisun Grand Durif, one of the family’s two flagship wines under the Caymus-Suisun label.
Chuck has steered his family’s business from the beginning to today, helping it adapt to an ever-changing and challenging landscape. He has been recognized for his winemaking and industry leadership while maintaining deep humility and an appreciation for family and great wine – wherever it may come from – and the connections between them.

Since its founding in 1972, Caymus has become renowned as a consistent leader in the production of Napa Valley Cabernet. Grapes for this wine are farmed in a range of Napa’s sub-appellations – from Coombsville to Calistoga – with fruit from the valley floor creating lushness and the hillsides providing backbone. Diversification enables us to make the best possible wine in a given year, featuring layered, lush aromas and flavors, including cocoa, cassis, and ripe berries.

- Red Schooner Voyage 11 Malbec Argentina 750ml
- Grapes for this Malbec are grown in the Andes Mountains of Argentina, then chilled and transported by ocean voyage to Caymus, where we use our winemaking techniques to create a dense, dark, and supple style. Falling outside standard labeling rules, Red Schooner does not include a vintage date but is known by the voyage from which it traveled (i.e., Voyage 11 is the 2021 vintage).

- 2021 Emmolo Merlot Napa Valley 750ml
- This wine is sourced from vineyards in Napa Valley, including land that has been in the family of Jenny Wagner’s maternal relatives (the Emmolos) for generations. We seek out areas with light, gravelly soil, and ideal growing conditions that enable longer “hang time” for the grapes to achieve full ripeness. We also utilize techniques like crop thinning to produce an elegant, distinctive Merlot.

- 2022 30th Anniversary Mer Soleil Reserve Chardonnay Monterey 750ml
- Taking its name from the sea and sun – the two forces of nature that shape its exotic character – this wine is as dramatic as the place where it is sourced. Monterey County has an extended growing season with morning fog, bright sunshine, and gusting winds. Grapes stay on the vine longer, developing intense aromas like custard and toasted almonds, rich fruit flavors, and enlivening lemon/lime.
