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.
