Dalla Valle Vineyards
Maya
Brought by Naoko. We've all heard it and experienced in some cases, the 2000 vintage in Napa wasn't supposed to be that great. The press said it, and we followed suit by not buying. Well, taste this blind and forget anything about that because it's stunning. You can tell it's a cool vintage but after about 30 mins of decanting it really opened up. Gorgeous fruit and very brambly. On a wine list it will most def be underpriced. Nab it.

May 8th, 2016Seriously stunning. Elegant, refined and still bountiful fruit. Always one of the best wines in Napa Valley and always excels in difficult vintages.
