Dense, ripe, and full-bodied, with deftly balanced, prodigious tannins, this magnificent effort displays a core of cassis, blackberry, graphite and espresso bean complimented by a slight hint of creamy vanilla oak on the finish. This distinguished young Cabernet Sauvignon delivers an exceedingly satisfying experience tonight but guaranteed to impress for decades to come! For perspective, I recently enjoyed a sample of this Estate Cabernet that had aged perfectly in the winery’s library for exactly two decades. Hence, I can testify that, given proper cellaring, these Dalla Valle wines will thrill for a generation.
