Mission Codename Boundless
“From the moment I set foot on the property, I was immediately struck by the beauty and the history. Maxville is truly a hidden gem…” – Jean Hoefliger, Winemaker
Truth. Look, the kids these days are all about “maxxing”. Lifemaxxing, looksmaxxing, sleepmaxxing. We are about dealmaxxing, which is what happens when boomers and millenials combine to take over a trend.
AEON means an immeasurably long, indefinite period of time, an age, or eternity. The Greeks must have foreseen the finish on this flagship Maxville. It’s much longer than the $175 price tag and the 95-point rave it was crowned with!
Maxville is overseen by the one and only Jean Hoefliger who serves up 95-100 point scores for breakfast, and you can get a taste of this magic at OVER 70% off today. The Wine Independent affirms that “one of Napa’s most famous consultant enologists, Michel Rolland has worked with and mentored many of the top winemakers in Napa Valley today, some of whom have become consultants themselves. One of his most gifted protégés is Jean Hoefliger.”
If you had their wines (like the ‘Oranos’ and their Sauv Blanc we blew thru in the past,) you already know what’s up. With Hoefliger (think Alpha Omega, The Debate, Harbison, Medlock Ames) as their winemaker, lofty expectations have once again been signed, sealed, and delivered for a steal.
A rather young winery started in 2014, the 1,100-acre property in Chiles Valley just north of Napa has a long history behind it. What began life as a remote camp in the 1960s eventually was resurrected as a state-of-the-art winery with breathtaking architecture, stunning views, and incredible wines.
Known for power, intensity, and gobs of smooth, ripe fruit, the AEON delivers like no other Maxville to date.
And again, on a vintage like 2021? Toted by Wine Spectator for “fresh, vibrant and powerfully fruited wines, showing precision, floral lift and a sense of place. This vintage cements the new style in Napa…”
You already know Napa Cab is popular around here… with 70+% OFF, stake your claim ASAP!
95 Points – Decanter “From Chiles Valley, this Aeon, made by Jean Hoefliger, is dark-fruited, with currant and black cherry fruit, incense, sagebrush, and nicely integrated cedarwood spices. Wonderfully structured with ample firm tannins that resolve nicely with tobacco spices, loamy earth notes, and salted dark chocolate notes extending the long earthy, mineral finish.”
