Clos du Val Wine Co.
Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Wine dinner with big group including Butch neighbor Art, Philip and Bewan. Great wine and needing more time! Still prominent but soft tannins and wrapped in more sumptuous garb than the regular Cab. So keep the remaining three in storage!

Jan 23rd, 2024Opened at end of dinner with Lun brothers. Beautiful example of classical well aged Cab still with lots of legs. Perfumed and complex nose with dark fruits and earth leather spice box and great texture and length.

Aug 5th, 2019CVed 10/28/16. Darker Ruby color than the regular 80s. Nose of mature black fruits and currants and tobacco and leaves and earthiness. Very impressive. Excellent body of mature fruits and secondary flavors and earthiness and still a lot of tannins that are supple and integrated. Long finish of complex notes of Forest and late floral hints. Yum. Z Auction.
