Lobenberg: Ein Blend aus Cabernet Sauvignon und Cabernet Franc. Kräftiges Dunkelrot. Obwohl deutlich fokussiert, verströmt der Wein eine wahnsinnige Fruchtintensität, fast ein Rausch von roten Früchten und exotischen Gewürzen. Im Mund haben wir Kirsche, getrocknete Johannisbeere, Kardamom, Bockshornklee, Kakao und Zimt. Wahnsinnig dicht und muskulös und trotzdem raffiniert. Beeindruckend ist die schiere Reinheit des Weines, nahtlos von Anfang bis Ende. Die Tannine sind sehr strukturiert, aber fein poliert. Eine glänzende Samt-Sensation mit wunderbarer Länge. 96/100

Parker über: Maya

-- Parker: It is excellent, but not one of the great efforts from this iconic winery situated on the eastern Vaca hillsides above the Oakville corridor. That said, the 2014 Maya Proprietary Red may not be as perfect as the 2013 was, but it is a fabulous effort. Finishing at 14.6% alcohol, this wine (generally a blend of about 60% Cabernet Franc and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon) has incredibly gorgeous aromatics of black and blue fruits, forest floor, violets, and an almost Graves-like, scorched earth, gravelly nuance. The wine hits the palate with a full-bodied richness and terrific harmony among its structural elements such as alcohol, acidity, tannin and wood, with moderately sweet tannins in the finish. It is a good 30- to 35-year wine, as most Mayas have tended to be, and is impressive and surprisingly structured for a 2014. Forget it for 3-4 years and drink it over the following 35-40 years. 95+/100

Galloni über: Maya

-- Galloni: The 2014 Maya is powerful, compact and closed in on itself. That's not much of a surprise given the wine was just bottled a few months ago. Dark, powerful and intense, the 2014 offers plenty of energy, but is also holding back much of its potential at this stage. The blend is 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Cabernet Franc, which is to say more Cabernet than has been the norm in recent years. There is plenty of intensity to the pomegranate, plum, red cherry and blood orange flavors, but the wine needs time to come into its own. 95+/100
