Power builds slowly in the 2013 Dalla Valle Cabernet Sauvignon, which opens with intense blackcurrant and black cherry layered over graphite, cedar and dark cocoa. The palate is deep and concentrated yet finely sculpted, its ripe fruit wrapped in polished but insistent tannins and a cool, stony edge that keeps the wine precise rather than heavy. This is a stately, long-haul Oakville Cabernet that promises even greater complexity as its structure mellows with time.
