Since the 1950's Mayacamas Vineyards has made a name for themselves in being one of the best producers of California Cabernet - not a small feat! The winery takes a traditional and almost old world approach to all of their wines, preserving the identity and terroir of their mountain fruit (mostly from Mt. Veeder), in order to create wines that are meant to last. Older expressions of their wines are compelling and truly complex, a treat for those who have patience!

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 95
"The 2021 Chardonnay is a rich, phenolic wine that shows just how distinctive this site is. Rich and layered, with striking intensity, the 2021 is lights out today. Lemon oil, almond, dried flowers and earthy undertones open beautifully with aeration." -Vinous

Robert Parker

RP 92
"The 2021 Chardonnay is made in a crisp, restrained style, spending 12 months in a mix of different barrels, up to 500 liters in volume. Less than 10% are new, and malolactic fermentation is blocked to retain freshness. Melon, pear and citrus notes come through on the nose and medium-bodied palate, while the finish is moderately silky in texture yet zesty, powered by bright lemon-lime notes." -Robert Parker

Wine Spectator

WS 92
"Features a fresh mix of Meyer lemon, pomelo and pear flavors at the core, with terrific structure, vibrancy and intensity. Juicy finish, where lemon thyme oil and mineral notes linger."
