Wine Advocate: 100 Points

As fans know, Maya comes from a very special section of the estate vineyard, situated in the valley's eastern foothills, below Pritchard Hill and in the above the Oakville floor, overlooking Screaming Eagle. The blend is two-thirds Cabernet Sauvignon and one-third Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Maya slowly unfurls to reveal a firework display of redcurrant preserves, kirsch, boysenberries and wild blueberries, followed by iron ore, red roses, cardamom, fallen leaves and crushed rocks, with a waft of pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is stunningly graceful and refined, featuring exhilarating mineral sparks among the red and black fruits, finishing with so much brightness and energy. Breathtaking!

Wine Spectator: 96 Points

Shows smoldering intensity, with a mix of mulberry, blackberry and black currant preserves that meld steadily with cast iron notes. A late flurry of violet and açaí adds more range, while the mineral aspect stays perfectly in its lane. Very long, with lovely flow. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2023 through 2040. 800 cases made.
