2009 Mayacamas Cabernet Sauvignon
Over many decades, Mayacamas Vineyards has garnered a reputation for consistently producing one of the longest-lived, classic style Cabernet Sauvignons in the Napa Valley. Fresh and vibrant in its youth, Mayacamas Cabernet ages effortlessly in the cellar. The 2009 vintage is no exception – the effusive nose is packed with aromas of black cherry, wild strawberry, sage, licorice, fig and red rose, while the bright acidity and firm but elegant tannins suggest much life ahead. Full of spirit and energy, 2009 is a classic year for Mayacamas.
Critical Acclaim
94 James Suckling
An evolved nose with tertiary aromas of truffle, undergrowth, leather, bark and cigar box. Medium-bodied with polished, melty tannins. Velvety and layered with a dense and elegant core at the center. Refined and settled with a harmonious finish.
92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
This year's library release is the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon, which still retains a vibrant dark garnet hue in the glass. On the nose, it offers up notes of dusty earth, slightly attenuated cassis and pie cherries, plus some attractive herbal nuances. It's medium-bodied and streamlined in shape on the palate, weighing in at just 13.25% alcohol, with a tart, lingering finish and just a dusting of fine tannins. It's an old-school style, very distinct from the ripe, plush wines that have largely taken over Napa Valley today, but it should still have plenty of fans.
91 Jeb Dunnuck
Coming from a cooler year, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon has a Bordeaux-like vibe in its red and darker, almost blue fruits as well as floral and herbal, cedary undertones. Clearly mature, yet with plenty of life ahead of it, this medium-bodied, charming, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon shines for its complexity, balance, and nuance. Enjoy bottles over the coming 10-12+ years.
