Description
Dalla Valle Red 2012Maya
owc
Bottle (3)
Property of a Los Angeles area gentleman, compliments of his temperature and humidity controlled cellar. All wines purchased on release, winery-direct.
“Dalla Valle was the first winery to demonstrate what heights Cabernet Franc could reach in the valley with their Maya proprietary blend, which averages 50-55% Cabernet Franc and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2012 Maya is a spectacular offering. I recently had the 1991 (made by Tony Soter) and it is still drinking exceptionally well. In fact, it could still be called an adolescent at 23 years of age. The 2012 Maya is already revealing great complexity with notes of forest floor, licorice, truffles, red and blackcurrants and a hint of graphite. The beautiful aromatics are followed by an equally majestic, full-bodied, multidimensional wine of great class and elegance. This sensational effort should drink well for 25-30 years.” (98 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Oct. 2014)
"The 2012 Maya is fabulous. Deep and explosive, the 2012 remains quite young. Black cherry, chocolate, espresso, licorice and gravel, along with the wine's natural concentration, convey an impression of virile intensity. As good as the 2012 is today, another few years in bottle certainly will not hurt." (97 pts. Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2024)
