Overview

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon MDV, named after Naoko Dalla Valle's daughter, Maya, emerges from the estate's best Cabernet Sauvignon blocks, those that have traditionally been used in the flagship Maya bottling. Over the last year, the MDV has developed into a much more refined wine than it was at the outset. Blood orange, star anise, mint and a host of spice notes give the 2013 a distinct, exotic edge that is impossible to miss. It will be fascinating to see where the MDV goes. Naoko Dalla Valle made a Cabernet Sauvignon from the Maya blocks once before, in 1999, for a charity auction lot. The wine was never sold commercially, but when I tasted it a few years ago, its place as one of the greatest wines ever made at the estate was evident.

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate displays loads of black fruit, cedar and wet stones along with some burning embers and charcoal, followed by wonderful ripeness and sweetness in a classic, full-bodied style. There’s a certain minerality, the tannins are prominent but velvety, and the wine multi-dimensional and layered. This wine will benefit from 5-7 years and last for at least 30+ years, based on how older vintages have evolved. This is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. By Robert M. Parker, Jr. October 2015
