2007 Dalla Valle Maya
6/15/2022 - sttorres28 Likes this wine: 98 Points
Color: purple
Nose/palate: crushed rocks, graphite, earth, pepper
Structure: medium+ acidity, medium+ tannins, full body.
Alcohol: 14.8%
A pretty flawless wine! Everything was in perfect balance and the palate was just so smooth, silky, light and absolutely zero trace of heat despite it clocking in at 14.8. Dalla Valle (whether it's the Maya or their estate cab) really is adept at managing the alcohol on the back palate. We had this with some of the more powerful cabs (Harlan Maiden, Abreu, Bevan, etc.) so was a little overpowered, but that was expected given the high composition of cab franc. But man, this was as good as it gets. Love this age on Maya!
