Super Star Napa Valley From Dalla Valle

Nick Jackson, MW | July 27, 2024

On the eastern slopes of Napa Valley, near the village of Oakville, one of the most exciting and rare American wines emerges. The Dalla Valle estate has for decades produced some of America's most sought-after wines, particularly the top wine, Maya.

Maya is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and a generous 40% of Cabernet Franc. The latter gives the lift and grace that distinguishes Maya from its neighbours; the perfume and detailed texture of the Cabernet Franc fruit yielding a wine of great complexity and winsome charm. Usually a mailing-list only wine, we are please to offer two vintages: the spectacular back to back years of 2018 and 2019. Attractive already, both years will continue improving for 20 years.
