Dalle Valle 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Dalla Valle is an Oakville icon made by Napa winemaking legend Andy Erickson and internationally renowned consulting enologist Michel Rolland. Limited.
99 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Based on 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc that was raised in 70% new oak, the Dalla Valle 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon sports a deep purple hue as well as a captivating nose of ripe blueberries, pure cassis, spring flowers, and chocolate, with this beautiful sense of minerality. Deep, rich, and concentrated, with a full-bodied mouthfeel, it has flawless tannins and a great finish. I know all the attention here goes to the smaller production Maya release, but I continue to beat the drums regarding the incredible quality of the classic Cabernet Sauvignon from this brilliant estate."
98 Points Robert Parker: "With a much higher proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon (91%, with 9% Cabernet Franc), the Dalla Valle 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is less floral than the Maya but more obviously fruity and up front. Bold black cherries and cassis lead the way, framed by gentle oak shadings of cedar and vanilla, backed by deep bass notes of rich loam and hints of tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, the tannins are wonderfully judged, supple and velvety in one sip, then fine and silky in the next, while the finish lingers effortlessly, even if it lacks some of the seamless elegance of its sister."
96 Points Wine Spectator: "This just feels special, as a focused, velvety wave of boysenberry, mulberry and black cherry reduction notes moves through steadily, carried by a graphite spine and laced throughout with iris and ganache accents. A terrific tug of cast iron is buried deeply on the finish. Best from 2025 through 2042. 1,100 cases made."
Founded in 1982 by Gustav and Naoko Dalla Valle, Dalla Valle produces high quality red wines in Napa. This is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon dense wine filled with blackcurrants and earth. Rich and round and drinking well on release but can be held for years.
