Description
Since its creation in 1972, Clos du Val Winery has become synonymous with producing high-quality, cellar-worthy wines. Clos du Val's very first vintage, a 1972 Napa Valley Cabernet, was chosen as one of the six California Cabernets to participate in the 1976 Paris Tasting and was the wine awarded first place honours in the 1986 rematch. This handcrafted wine from an iconic producer will be ripe and generous and a great partner for grilled steak or steak medallions.

Tasting Notes
Clos du Val's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is super-impressive ... Savory and mineral-driven in style, the 2014 possesses remarkable intensity to match its chiseled, finely-sculpted personality. Medium in body, structured and classic in feel, the 2014 is shaping up to be a real beauty. This could turn out to be one of the overachievers of the vintage. Drinking window: 2019-2034. Score - 91-94. (Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, Oct. 2015)
