The Character
Tasting Notes The 2022 Maya is a rare iteration of 55% Cabernet Franc and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, this blend composition has not been done since 1989. The aromatics displays an enchanting bouquet that captivates the senses. The initial impression is a delightful interplay of clove and violet, where the warm spice harmonizes beautifully with the floral notes. On the palate, the fruit is ripe yet balanced, with notes of blackberry and dark fruits, offering a vibrant core that is invigorating and inviting. A hint of musk weaves through the profile, adding an intriguing depth that beckons further exploration. The seamless tannins in this wine create a luxurious mouthfeel, gracefully supporting the rich fruit while allowing the complexity to shine. As the flavors unfold, notes of licorice and mocha emerge, enriching the experience with their dark, seductive character. These elements lend an indulgent sweetness that perfectly complements the fruit-forward nature of the blend. The finish is long and resonant, echoing the flavors of dried herbal tones that linger on the palate. This subtle herbal nuance adds an elegant sophistication, grounding the wine and enhancing its multifaceted profile. Aged for 22 months in 75% new oak, Bottled July 23rd 2024.
