1992 | Dalla Valle Vineyards | Maya

Firm structure, with tight, chewy tannins wrapped around a tight core of earthy currant, pencil lead and dense blackberry flavors. Intense and concentrated.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The awesome 1992 Maya is performing better than the 1991 did at a similar stage. It reveals a saturated purple color, as well as an intense fragrance of black-raspberries, cassis, flowers, and minerals. The wine possesses great fruit, superb density, wonderful purity and balance, and a compelling extra dimension both aromatically and texturally.

• James Suckling: Firm structure, with tight, chewy tannins wrapped around a tight core of earthy currant, pencil lead and dense blackberry flavors. Intense and concentrated.

Producer Information

Dalla Valle Vineyards is a Napa Valley producer located on a sunny hillside terrace of fractured volcanic rock in Oakville, 400ft(120m) above the Silverado Trail. It is particularly known for its flagship Maya cuvée, which is one of the most prestigious of all Californian wines. The 1992, 2002, 2013 and 2016 wines have all received 100-point scores from The Wine Advocate publication.The estate was founded in 1986 (although it was purchased in 1982) by former scuba diver and diving equipment entrepreneur Gustav Dalla Valle and his wife Naoko. After Gustav's death in 1995, just as the winery was gaining cult status, Naoko, whose family background includes Sake production, took control of the estate.Naoko is widely credited with having maintained, if not augmented, the winery's reputation into the 21st Century.
