Tasting notes
Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated (there's 12% Cabernet Franc), the 2022 Collina has a deep ruby/purple hue as well as a great nose cassis and redcurrants intermixed with classic spice, tobacco, and gravelly earth notes. It's forward, medium to full-bodied, has integrated oak, and a great finish.

The 2022 Collina Dalla Valle is juicy, open-knit and expressive, all of which make it a fine choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years. Maya and Naoko Dalla Valle crafted a gorgeous, beautifully balanced wine. Crushed red berry fruit, cinnamon, rose petal and licorice linger. What a delight.

About the producer
Dalla Valle Vineyards was founded in 1986 by Naoko and her late husband Gustav Dalla Valle, in Oakville. Initially they had wanted to create a luxury resort, but when they discovered the potential of the site, they changed tack and decided to make wine.
