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.

Dalla Valle was one of the first generation of high-end, small-production wineries, the so-called ‘cults,' that shook up Napa Valley in the early and mid-1990s. More recently, though, the estate has seemed to enjoy a less glamorous profile than some of its contemporaries. Perhaps that is because proprietor Naoko Della Valle is reserved and soft-spoken, or it might have to do with a few vintages in the mid-2000s that weren't up to the highest standards this estate has set over time, or a little of both. No matter, Dalle Valle is back, and big time. This is a fabulous set of wines that captures the essence of some of Oakville's most pristine hillside sites. As luxurious as the wines are, the cellar itself looks more like something right out of Burgundy or Piemonte; small, functional and bare bones. Then again, with fruit like this, it really shouldn't take much to make great wines. During my last visit I also tasted a few wines from the early 1990s that were made by Heidi Barrett and Mia Klein. Frankly, those wines have aged unevenly. Over the last few years, Naoko Dalla Valle has formed a great partnership with winemaker Andy Erickson that I hope will last for a long time. These current and upcoming releases are simply stunning.
