2019 Mayacamas, Cabernet Sauvignon, Mt Veeder, Napa Valley, California, USA

Description

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is a perfect example of what Mayacamas produce; fresh, clean and classy mountain wines from the peak of Mt. Veeder. All aspects of their 2019 Cabernet fall perfectly into place while showcasing true elegance.

This is a great reminder of the classic days of the Napa Valley when producers prided themselves of crafting wines with elegance, balance and finesse before the big bold influence of Robert Parker.

The flavour profile here is somewhat Bordeaux in style, not overly intense and full of high quality dark red fruit on the palate. Tannins are very well integrated and there’s a great vibrancy along the finish. Simply delicious!

Critics reviews

Antonio Galloni 97/100

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is a pretty rich, bombastic wine, especially for Mayacamas. A blast of dark fruit, incense, tobacco, licorice, spice and mocha hits the palate. I would give the 2019 at least a few years in bottle to settle down, as it is quite the powerhouse today. This is an unusually flamboyant wine with plenty of richness and a bit less in the way of subtlety. The opulence of the vintage comes through loud and clear.

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon erupts from the glass with a gorgeous perfume of blueberry compote, boysenberry preserves, and warm cassis leading to nuances of lavender, tar, tapenade, and fragrant soil. The medium to full-bodied palate is tightly wound with vibrant black fruit and savory nuances framed by very firm grainy tannins, finishing long with a minerally lift.

Moving to the current releases, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is clearly on another level. Cassis, violets, spring flowers, and graphite, as well as a beautiful sense of minerality, all emerge on the nose, and it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, fine, polished tannins, fabulous balance, and a great finish. This stunning bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon will drink nicely over the coming 30 years or more.

Joe Czerwinski 94/100

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon remains true to the winery's historic style, offering complex notes of dried herbs and mixed berries, carried across the palate by a wine that's medium-bodied, crisp and somewhat lean by modern Napa standards. It finishes long and dusty, promising well for the future.
