Lot #1012. Dalla Valle Maya 1996

Description: Consists of 1 Double Magnum, 3L
Packaging: OWC.
Score: 96 WA.
"The 1996 Maya is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Vivid, intense aromas of new saddle leather, plums, black currants, underbrush, and licorice are followed by a full-bodied, sensationally concentrated wine with sweet tannin, a deep, exceptionally pure and concentrated mid-palate, and an opulently-textured finish. It was surprisingly open-knit and delicious when tasted in October, but there is more tannin lurking beneath the surface. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2025." Robert M. Parker, Jr., Wine Advocate, Dec. 1999
Provenance: The Nantais Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $2,500
