96 Points James Suckling: “So much blackberry and lead-pencil shavings. Hints of tar, too. Full-to medium-bodied with extremely well-crafted tannins that run the length of the wine. Hints of oak at the end, but this will come together nicely with bottle age. Slightly chewy now. Some salted caramel. Better after 2026.”
95 Points Robert Parker: “Black cherries, dark loam and cassis appear on the nose of Dalla Valle’s 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate, joined by hints of cedar and vanilla. It’s medium to full-bodied, firm, tannic and sturdy but essentially ripe, with a softness to its structure that suggests early accessibility. The long, mocha-tinged finish lingers elegantly, a delicious capstone to a super wine”
Winery Notes: “Our 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic expression of our unique terroir. The iron rich, core stone volcanic site comprised of
Andesitic Basalt bring beautiful concentration and elegance to the wines each vintage. The 2020 is comprised of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21%
Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, always 100% estate blend. Notes of perfumed violet and bergamot on the nose harmonize with aromas of
allspice and cassis. On the first sip you will find rich notes of blackberry, cocoa powder and cedar box carried by the undercurrent of plush and
elegant tannins. An elongated finish allows you to experience the full complexities of this wine, which will have a long life ahead.”
