Bennett Lane Maximus Red Feasting Wine Napa Valley 2019

Are you not entertained?! Is this not why you are here?! 94 POINTS. Over 63% OFF…Maximus…Maximus…

Oh, baby…I guess it’s past time I watched Gladiator again! Preferably with a bottle of this, and a simply hedonistic array of olives, charcuterie, cheeses, maybe a chariot race on the TV – good times. Ok…let’s get after it…fabulous people, you awesome humans – we HEARD you!! And we HOOKED you up today, oh yes! Bennett Lane has been on our “most re-requested” list since the first time we ever offered it some years back – so any of you who know this wine probably aren't reading anyway, as you’ve already got your 6-pack!

For the rest of you – well, just HURRY is all we can advise, here sorry. Beautifully drinking, 94 POINT cab-dominant deliciousness, rounded out with 9% merlot, 6% syrah, 5% malbec, and 2% petit verdot at...well, let’s find the right phrase...reality warping prices, like, you just went through a black hole to a dimension where Cabernet at this level costs about 63+% less than you ever thought possible. Oh, and also you have 2 heads and telekinetic powers. Who knows? It’s possible.

This might come from another dimension as well – huge, concentrated, and more plush than an emperor’s lion-skin cape – pulsating with lavish blueberries and black cherries, plums, and blackberries, all complemented extravagantly with smoky cedar, and finely coated with molten dark chocolate. Roasted herbs, and silky tannins, with a hint of rocky minerality – there’s sooo much to discover here, at a simply RIDONKULOUS price! I said 94 POINTS, right? For the nigh-on unbelievable price of just $20?!?! What are you waiting for??? Drink this tonic!!!

** So…Gladiator Two, huh? Will it be a masterfully handled continuation long overdue…or a money-grabbing soulless effort that will only serve to enrage fans of the original? And can it really be worth the price of admission without Djimon Hounsou’s Juba making a return? Time will tell… **
