Maya is one of the undisputed original cult wines from California. I remember my first experience with this wine for the 1994 vintage. We tasted it alongside a bevy of other '94s including Screaming Eagle, Colgin and Shafer Hillside. The thing about Maya, is it's different. There is no mistaking the Cabernet Franc component, and Dalla Valle has always done it right, making it one of the most unique offerings from Napa Valley. There are many excellent California wines, but Maya continues to be very individual in its expression with each vintage. The 2019 vintage is 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. - Ron van Vlaardingen

As fans know, Maya comes from a very special section of the estate vineyard, situated in the valley's eastern foothills, below Pritchard Hill and in the above the Oakville floor, overlooking Screaming Eagle. The blend is two-thirds Cabernet Sauvignon and one-third Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Maya slowly unfurls to reveal a firework display of redcurrant preserves, kirsch, boysenberries and wild blueberries, followed by iron ore, red roses, cardamom, fallen leaves and crushed rocks, with a waft of pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is stunningly graceful and refined, featuring exhilarating mineral sparks among the red and black fruits, finishing with so much brightness and energy. Breathtaking! - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate

The very deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Maya is shy and restrained to begin. With swirling, it begins to reveal beguiling notes of fragrant earth, lavender, garrigue and Sichuan pepper, giving way to a core of wild blueberries, boysenberries, black raspberries and black currants plus a hint of iron ore. The palate is full-bodied, revealing itself in slow-releasing layers of black and blue fruits with exhilarating earth and mineral sparks, framed by firm, beautifully ripe tannins and bold freshness, finishing on a persistent ferrous note. As cerebral as it is downright hedonic, this Maya is simply jaw-dropping.-- Lisa Perotti-Brown, Wine Advocate
