Mission Codename Sky is the limit

If you’re going to name a wine after the Greek God for THE SKY it better deliver.

This delicious example comes from Maxville and was overseen by the one and only Jean Hoefliger (of Alpha Omega, AXR, The Debate…) He serves up 95-100 point scores for breakfast and you can get a taste of this magic for 60% off today. Once $118 and now, way, WAY lower.

That’s $70+ OFF each bottle?! Madness!

Fascinatingly, more than 2/3 of this inaugural flagship red is Cabernet, entirely from Sacrashe, the legendary Rutherford hillside vineyard owned by Hall, shared by Alpha Omega, and The Debate. It’s right up the road from Auberge du Soleil and Sloan Estate!

From the epic 2016 vintage - like 98 points by every critic that matters - it has all the power and structure you could want. It’s a true crowd pleaser with its full-bodied plushness and decadent mix of deep red and black fruits. Loaded with black currant, cherry preserves, dried violets, cassis, toasty oak, cloves, and subtle hints of vanilla-laced pipe tobacco. It all carries through the mouth with a soft and expansive feel. Try with some well-seasoned flank steak (or any cut really) and we think your taste buds will thank you.

Mark our words, Maxville is a name you’ll keep hearing more and more in the wine press soon as recent investments in vineyards and quality are through the roof. Master consultant Jean Hoefliger appointed his young apprentice Bastien Lucas from Alpha Omega to Maxville for starters, the rest will soon be history, and this is your not-to-miss opportunity to get in on Maxville’s inaugural flagship!

There’s a 100% chance you’ll love this wine and an equal 100% chance you’ll wish you bought much more. Especially when you think of what you paid for a neighbor to Auberge & Sloan!
