Magnum of Maybach Wine

The name Maybach is synonymous with quality at the finest level. The Maybach Family Vineyards intend to honor with their hand-made wines the tradition of individuality and craftsmanship established by their ancestors, Wilhelm and Karl Maybach. From a single hillside vineyard above the Silverado Trail they offer a deeply concentrated, elegantly textured Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Winemaker Thomas Brown’s minimalist approach encourages the character of the Oakville region to express itself through rich aromas and flavors.

Wine Advocate # 180 (Dec 2008) Robert Parker Rating 94
The 2006 Materium may be an even greater achievement (than the 2005) as it is an undeniably brilliant success in a less consistent vintage for Bordeaux varietals. Full-bodied and powerful with surprisingly silky tannins, it exhibits abundant black fruit, charcoal, and loamy soil characteristics as well as a 40-45-second finish. This stunning 2006 should age effortlessly for 25+ years. Drink 2008-2033

It is a pleasure to share the release of their second vintage in form of a Magnum bottle of  Maybach Wine donated by the Maybach Family Vineyards.

Afternoon with Quincy Jones


An impresario in the broadest and most creative sense of the word, Quincy Jones’ career has encompassed the roles of composer, record producer, artist, film producer, arranger, conductor, instrumentalist, TV producer, record company executive, magazine founder and multi-media entrepreneur. As a master inventor of musical hybrids, he has shuffled pop, soul, hip-hop, jazz, classical, African and Brazilian music into many dazzling fusions, traversing virtually every medium, including records, live performance, movies and television.

Quincy Jones gives you the chance to spend a whole afternoon with him as he donates a Meet and Greet with himself. So don´t miss the chance to meet the person who co produced the worlds most sold studio album ,Michael Jacksons “Thriller”, in person. After your Meet and Greet you can enjoy a Chef’s Tasting Menu for Four valued at $500 at the Hidden Restaurant & Lounge in Santa Monica California. An ultimate presentation of four courses (three savory and one sweet) served in the Private Cabana. Each course appropriately paired with wines selected by the Sommelier.
