Mayacamas, Napa Valley, Mt. Veeder, Cabernet Sauvignon 1981 (HS)

removed from Original Carton; high shoulder

Mayacamas Vineyards is among the classic wineries that have made California wines among the world's finest. The original stone winery is a Napa classic. The Mayacamas wines remain extraordinary...they offer a freshness almost unparalleled in Napa, along with an intensity of tannin that can invigorate fans of the valley's classic wines. -Jon Bonne, The San Francisco Chronicle

Mayacamas Vineyards is one of the greatest Cabernet Sauvignon producers in the history of California. For those who long for great red wines that cellar with conviction and evolve in the course of time into brilliantly complex and compelling wines, Mayacamas Vineyards remains one of the brightest stars in the constellation of California wine. It is arguably the last man standing from the glory days of California's past. -John Gilman, View from the Cellar

92 points Vinous

The personality of the cool vintage comes through in spades in the 1981 Cabernet Sauvignon. Although texturally quite polished and impeccable in its balance, the 1981 remains a bit compact and linear in style. In any other setting, it would probably be magnificent but here, next to so many icons, the 1981 remains only outstanding. (AG) (6/2014)
