2012 Maybach Cabernet Sauvignon Materium

2012 Maybach Cabernet Sauvignon Materium.

I brought this to my annual Flyertalk wine dinner at North Square in Greenwich Village (NY). My friend said that if you could write a note based on my facial expression, it would be priceless. The last time I had a rolleyes experience was 30 years ago, and I’ve tasted a few good wines in between. This was a dark color. Smooth. No tannins. A little chocolatey along with some chalk. This was the wine of the night. The other 12 at dinner were also impressed, so you don’t have to believe me. You can drink this now and enjoy, but it also has time left in the bottle. Slow ox for 60 minutes. 98 points.

Thanks for the update. Haven’t opened one since 2 years ago, but had similar notes. Only 1 bottle left, so trying to hold off opening that one.

That happened to me with a bottle of 1982 Bordeaux back in March. I can imagine a 10yo Materium doing that too.
