November 9, 2018 - Drinking absolutely perfectly! Great depth, flavor and balance at this point. Probably deserves an even higher rating at this point!

November 6, 2015 - Spectacular. Decanted for 1 hour. With pork chops and coq as vin. Earthy, notes of berries, smooth finish. Unfortunately, our last bottle. Drink now!

September 1, 2015 - Lovely stuff, soft and sweet. I really like the style; there's depth and some power but it's so playful and gentle too.

December 27, 2014 - Think this wine is on the back side of its peak. Not as tannic but still plenty of fruit with subdued nose

Tasting California Wines with a Longtime Vayniac, Episode #868, 5/26/2010 (link) (90-91) points(Casa Dalla Valle Napa Red) #2; COLOR-dark; NOSE-no notes; PALATE-this is a classic, textbook, California cab that most would love (it's: bombastic; delicious; smooth as silk; a long ass finish; it's built with structure; well made); but a little fake for me, but most would love this; a hedonistic, over-the-top wine; very well made and delicious; many would score this a 95 point wine; WS-93; GV-90/91
