Dalla Valle's Maya is one of Napa Valley’s most iconic wines. This complete vertical back to the inaugural 1988 is a poignant reminder of just how trailblazing Maya was back in the 1980s and 1990s. At the same time, though, Maya is timeless and enduring in its beauty.
Naoko Dalla Valle and her husband Gustav purchased their estate in 1982. The sunny, well-exposed property reminded Gustav Dalla Valle of his native Italy. Dalle Valle is located about mid-slope on the eastern side of Oakville in what is now recognized as one of the pockets of true excellence within Napa Valley. Pedregal, Weitz, Backus, Peter Michael’s Au Paradis and Oakville Terrace are some of the sites that surround Dalla Valle. Sadly, Gustav Dalla Valle passed away in 1995, but he left behind a rich legacy that even he probably could not have envisaged. Today, the winery is run by Naoko Dalla Valle with the assistance of Winemaker Andy Erickson.

This entire property has been replanted over the last 13 years and the last block started yielding fruit last year. Production should increase in the years ahead after bottoming out in 2007, when just 270 cases of the NapaValley bottling and 300 cases of Maya were produced. It's good to see this property back on track, as these red, rocky soils on the eastern slopes above Oakville produce wonderfully scented wines, and the cabernet franc here is, in my opinion, about as good as this variety gets outside of Saint-Emilion. Proprietor Naoko Dalla Valle told me the harvest of 2008 started in a rush on September 4, "but then we were able to slow down as the temperatures cooled."
