RATINGS

95Vinous / IWC

... Super-ripe black cherry, blackberry jam, cloves, new French oak and bittersweet chocolate flesh out in this unctuous, racy wine... Exquisitely layered and super-expressive...

94Wine Enthusiast

...aromas of bay leaf, peppercorn and pencil shavings that carry through to the structured, savory palate. Length and complexity rule above all, adding to the rich core of spicy blackberry and currant...

93-95Jeb Dunnuck

... A sexy, undeniable fruit bomb that delivers tons of black and blue fruits, exotic flower, and orange peel nuances, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, terrific purity of fruit, integrated acidity, and no hard edges...

91-94Robert M. Parker Jr.

...beautiful texture, medium to full body, loads of blueberry and forest floor notes intermixed with additional blackcurrant and black cherry notes...foresty notes, full-bodied texture and a deep, plushness...

PRODUCER

Clos du Val

Clos du Val was founded by John Goelet, a New York businessman, in 1972 in the Stag’s Leap District of Napa Valley. Bernard Portet was the founding winemaker, and he was responsible for much of the winery’s rise in reputation in the 1970s and 1980s. He retired in 2010. The winery owns 320 acres in Stag’s Leap and Carneros, and is known for its Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Portet was among the first winemakers in the region to use Merlot to soften California Cabernet Sauvignon, and his wines were known for their elegance and finesse. Today Clos du Val’s winemaker is John Clews, and the winery continues to earn acclaim for its wine. Wine & Spirits Magazine named it Winery of the Year in 2010. The winery’s signature wine is the Stag’s Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon.
