2012 Maybach Cabernet Sauvignon Materium

"From the red soils near Dalla Valle in the eastern part of the Oakville Corridor, the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Materium is a killer wine. It possesses a striking, intense, rocky minerality, an opaque purple color, and deep, beautiful aromas of camphor, spring flowers, blueberries and black raspberry fruit. There is a cool climate character (even though this is not a cool climate viticultural area) as well as superb richness, a full-bodied mouthfeel, great delineation and a mindboggling finish that lasts nearly a full minute. This outrageous Cabernet Sauvignon can be drunk now and over the next 25 years.

These fabulous wines are fashioned from the Weitz Vineyard, which is planted at a 1,000 foot elevation on the eastern side of Oakville. The Amoenus and Materium cuvées are from the Calistoga AVA. The brilliant winemaking guru Thomas Brown provides his expertise at Maybach Family Vineyards. Brown has hit the bull’s eye with every one of these releases. "
