Seamless and profoundly elegant, with soft tannins and a touch of Cabernet Franc that adds a faint herbal note to the nose, this remarkable Napa Cabernet (made by star consultant Mia Klein) comes from Dalle Valle's estate vineyards tucked away on the east side of Oakville. Dalla Valle Cabernet Sauvignon is blended with a small amount of Cabernet Franc and is aged in 50% to 60% new French oak barrels. This wine consistently exhibits impressive structure and velvety berry flavors vintage after vintage. Dalla Valle Vineyards produces two estate wines, the Cabernet Sauvignon - Napa Valley, and Maya - a proprietary red wine.. Each of these wines is made from Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grown on the estate property. Production is in very limited quantities.
