Dalla Valle Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 1997
Napa Valley
"1997 appears to be a fabulous vintage for proprietress Naoko Dalla Valle. The gorgeous, saturated ruby/purple-colored 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon (2,800 cases) is a blend of 85 Cabernet Sauvignon and 15 Cabernet Franc. It offers sweet, jammy, black currant, mineral, spice box, and tobacco aromas, full-bodied flavors, a layered mid-palate, and gobs of ripe tannin in the lengthy finish. Approachable, it will be even better with several years of cellaring, and should last for two decades or more." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Issue 126, 12/31/2000
