The estate wines produced by Dalla Valle Vineyards originates in specific vineyard blocks, imbuing each with a unique sense of place. There are three wines produced each year from the estate.
Collina Dalla Valle, translating from Italian to “Hill of the valley”, is the introductory wine into the brand. This red blend is created from the younger vines on the property and offers a more approachable profile in its youth.
Dalla Valle Cabernet Sauvignon was the first wine created from the estate in 1986. Always blended with a small fraction of Cabernet Franc, the Cabernet expresses the beauty of Dalla Valle Vineyards terroir.
Maya, named after founders Naoko and Gustav’s daughter, is a special blend of Maya’s Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon and our best selected blocks of Cabernet Franc.
MDV is a mailing list only wine that is produced only in exceptional years. It is a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Maya’s Vineyard, the base of Maya.

Rating | 98 RP - The Maya Proprietary red wine is usually a blend of 45% Cabernet Franc and 55% Cabernet Sauvignon. The 1995 Maya reflects the fact that this is another exceptional vintage for California's North Coast. Wineries need more than luck to produce multi-dimensional wines with this concentration ripeness sweetness of fruit and overall intensity and complexity. The terrific 1995 is cut from the same mold as all the great Mayas of this decade. Its tannin may be even riper than in the 1994 but the wine is still an unevolved massive and unformed giant although it is obvious that this will be another legendary effort. RP |
