About Dalla Valle Vineyards
Dalla Valle Vineyards was the project of husband and wife duo Gustav and Naoko Dalla Valle. The couple founded Dalla Valle in 1986, in the eastern hills of Oakville, a site which benefits from extended sun exposure and cooling gusts from the pacific. Sadly, Gustav passed away in 1995, leaving Naoko to continue their venture herself.

93-95 Points | International Wine Cellar , May/June 2013
Deep, bright ruby. Utterly primary aromas of blueberry, blackberry, licorice and violet. Densely packed and sweet, with a fine-grained texture to its very ripe flavors of dark berries and mocha. Not as expansive as the larger-scaled 2010 but then this is still an infant. Finishes with serious tannic clout and outstanding lift. I look forward to tasting this wine in its finished form.
