2020 Dalla Valle Maya

Founded in 1982 by Naoko and Gustav Dalla Valle, the winery is located 800 feet above the Silverado Trail and offers excellent views of the landscape. In the early 1980s, Naoko's visionary idea of planting vines against the hillsides astonished the Napa Valley. Today, some of California's finest wines are produced here. In 1992, Dalla Valle's Cabernet Sauvignon received 100 Parker points. It was the second California wine to receive this perfect score.

2020 was a remarkable year for winemaking in Napa Valley. The growing season began with dry conditions and a relatively warm spring with rapid growth. Summer slowed with classic cool Napa evenings and warm days. August accelerated ripening, leading to an early harvest. The grapes were carefully sorted, destemmed and slowly fermented, finally maturing in the finest French oak barrels for over two years. The Maya 2020 exudes confidence and elegance from the first sip. A classic Maya blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Cabernet Franc, the core comes from “Maya's Vineyard” Cabernet Sauvignon, always blended with carefully chosen Cabernet Franc to harmonize and boost the energetic qualities of the Cabernet Sauvignon. An exquisite symphony of incense, clove and cedar jumps from the glass at the beginning, then subtle fruit notes of cherry and blueberry on the nose. The classic silky yet firm tannins leave a long finish.
