Clos Du Val Description
Clos Du Val Estate Cabernet Sauvignon bursts onto the scene with complex aromas of blackberry, blue plum, violet, and a touch of fresh herbs, setting the stage for a vibrant and expressive Napa Valley experience. On the palate, it delivers a delicious medley of cherry, dark chocolate, cassis, and toasted almonds, all wrapped in fresh acidity and supple tannins. The result is a beautifully balanced wine with a long, smooth finish—perfect for pairing with grilled steaks, roasted lamb, or a rich mushroom risotto.
Tasting Panel: 96 Points
A wash of elegant liquid offers a whisper of sleek tannins guided by sweet earth, slate, purple plum, and black olive. Midpoint savory notes of fig, toasted cedar, and black tea meld with heather and blackberry on the well- structured and impeccably balanced palate.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
A mix of black fruits spun through with stimulating and flavorful spices fill the mouth with juicy and savory flavors. These are carried by a balance of acidity and fine-grained tannins into a mouthwatering and lengthy finish.
James Suckling: 92 Points
Fresh and nicely framed aromas of red currants, stone and sweet tobacco. Medium-bodied with open-grained tannins and a creamy finish. Crunchy fruit. A blend of 77% cabernet sauvignon, 12% merlot, 5% malbec, 4% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot. Very drinkable now, but can improve with age.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
One of the more realistically priced Napa Cabs out there, Clos du Val's 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 5% Malbec, 4% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. Scents of black and red cherries, hints of violets and vanilla mark the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is silky and fresh, streamlined and classic in style. It's ready to drink now and should continue to drink well for the next decade.
Jeb Dunnuck: 89 Points
Ripe red and black fruits, leafy herbs, spice, and a kiss of sandalwood all emerge from the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, a charming, balanced, classic 2022 that's perfect for drinking in its youth and over the coming 5-7 years or so.
Wine Spectator: 89 Points
Warmed cassis and plum sauce notes are gilded liberally with singed vanilla and cocoa. The plush, fan-friendly finish lets a light tobacco hint peek in. Drink now through 2030. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 33,815 cases made.
