In 2021, Dalla Valle Cabernet Sauvignon is a deeply concentrated, statuesque Napa red that layers crème de cassis and black cherry with rose petal, cedar, cocoa and a streak of dark, earthy graphite. The palate is dense yet refined, with pixel-fine tannins and vibrant natural acidity giving a sense of precision and lift to all that black-fruited power, finishing with remarkable length and complex hints of tobacco, dried flowers and subtle spice. This is a compelling, long-haul vintage that begs for time in the cellar to reveal its full nuance.
