Dalla Valle Maya 2007 is a full-bodied Bordeaux-style red wine from the Napa Valley of California. Dalla Valle Maya is a flagship wine from Dalla Valle Vineyards, a boutique winery founded by Gustav and Naoko Dalla Valle in 1982. The estate is located in the Oakville appellation within Napa Valley, an area known for producing exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine is typically a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, with the proportions varying each year depending on the best representation of the vineyard.

“A blend of two-thirds Cabernet Franc and one-third Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2006 Maya reveals an exceptional bouquet of sweet blue and black fruits intermixed with notions of flowers, roasted herbs, and charcoal. Dense, full-bodied, and powerful, with superb richness, complexity, and potential, this is a super example of this Cabernet Franc-dominated wine. Surprisingly approachable now, it should evolve for 15-20+ years.” 94 points, Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate 2009.

The 2007 Maya is deep garnet-brick in color. Notes of blackberry pie, creme de cassis, and black cherry preserves pop from the glass, followed by hints of cinnamon toast, red roses, and fallen leaves. The full-bodied palate is packed with bold black fruit layers, supported by plush, beautifully ripe tannins and bags of freshness, finishing long and opulent. Andy Erickson started here in January 2007 and it was also the first year of organic farming.Lisa Perrotti-Brown28th February 2024

What a difference a year makes. The 2007 Maya is a drop-dead gorgeous beauty. Sexy and racy to the core, the 2007 captures the sensuality of the year in spades. Raspberry jam, white flowers, mint and spices are nicely shaped by silky tannins. Production was tiny, at around 270 cases, partly because 2007 is the vintage in which Dalla Valle introduced their second wine, Collina Dalla Valle. It's great to see Maya back on track after the less than stellar 2006.Antonio Galloni1st June 2014
