Dalla Valle & Ornellaia

Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc Vintage production: 550 cases DVO Napa Valley, the joint-venture between Dalla Valle Vineyards and Ornellaia, has firmly established its ‘Cult’... status among the world’s collectors, and has quickly taken its position on the most exclusive restaurant wine lists. Winemakers Maya Dalla Valle & Axel Heinz have crafted two of the most celebrated wines in the world - Maya and Masseto. Given the Elite status these two wines command, DVO is on the path to join them. Their shared passion and skill are on display in full glory with DVO, and they went to extraordinary lengths to pick three first-class vineyards in the Oakville, Coombsville and Mount Veeder AVAs. Each brings a distinctive character to the Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend, and stylistically it is unlike anything else we’ve tasted from Napa. As Perrotti-Brown says: “Draped in flamboyant drama, this is a very different, very exciting new face of Napa Valley!”
