Estimate
Aromas of blackcurrant, mushroom, wet earth and bark follow through to a full body, chewy tannins and a stone, berry, chili and spice aftertaste. Muscular and chunky. Very serious. Almost no new oak. This shows the Mayacamas DNA.
Savory, fresh and super-inviting, as so many wines are in this vintage, Bright red cherry, iron, smoke, mint, wild flowers and anise all lift from the glass. Medium in body, taut and wonderfully focused
An incredible wine that reminds me of a great vintage of Lafite...Stunning notes of red and blackcurrants, lead pencil shavings, cigar tobacco....incredibly elegant, ethereal, yet layered...brilliant, classic, old-school styled Napa Cabernet done perfectly!
F juicy black currant and blackberry paste notes, with lively licorice snap and bramble accents filling the available space. A roasted apple wood accent lends a mouthwatering edge while a tarry echo at the very end adds range and length.
