"...fresh and creamy chardonnay from here with stone, apple-pie and pear aromas and flavors. Tight at the end. Can age nicely."

| “At the crest of Mount Veeder, a sinuous appellation that clings to the Mayacamas Mountains’ southern reaches, rests Mayacamas Vineyards – as it has for over a century ... Fifty acres of vines quietly speak to both an unshakeable past and a fortitude for the future. Their fruit finds its voice in a stone cellar built in 1889, and, when bottled, it shares with us a story of humility and commitment – unadorned, with concentration, elegance, and balance.”

There is striking creaminess and oiliness to the feel, even though the malolactic fermentation was fully blocked. The 2020 is just gorgeous in the way it conveys mountain energy while avoiding any sense of austerity.
Braiden Albrecht and Andy Erickson showed me a stunning range of wines during my most recent visit. Probably the biggest development at Mayacamas in recent years has been a move to increasingly focus on estate fruit; although I must add that Bob Travers always purchased fruit from nearby ranches to augment his own production, so the inclusion of outside fruit has long been tradition here. The 2018s benefit from a long growing season that allowed for the full maturation of tannins, while the 2019s have a slightly firmer tannin. As for the 2019 Cabernet, well, it is shaping up to be magnificent."
