Maybach Family Vineyards
For 100 years the name Maybach has been synonymous with quality at the finest level. The tradition of individuality and craftsmanship established by their ancestors, they intend to honor with their hand-made wines.
2013 marks the tenth year working with winemaker Thomas Brown, whose minimalist approach to his craft encourages the expression of regional characteristics in our wines, notably through rich aromas and flavors.
Tasting Notes
- WA98
- The 2013 Amoenus comes from a completely different terroir, a western hillside vineyard near Calistoga that averages 10-15 degrees cooler than the eastern part of the valley in what is known as the Black Mountain Gap. The wine shows incredible minerality, beautiful notes of forest floor, floral scents, blackcurrant liqueur, licorice and graphite. The wine is dense, full-bodied and seems even more backward and broodingly powerful than the Materium. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is a long-distance runner that should age beautifully for 30-40 years. Production of this is much less, usually averaging under 300 cases of wine per year.
