Clos du Val Red Blend Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Malbec
A blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Petit Verdot, and 5% Malbec from 3 different sites in Red Hills, Lodi and Mendocino. Following a dry winter season, the 2020 harvest began with mild weather patterns. In early August, an intense heatwave hit the Napa Valley and accelerated ripening, causing harvest to start two to three weeks early. The wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks with 2-3 dialy pump overs and then aged for 7 months in French oak.
Tasting notes
Opening with fresh aromas of cherry, raspberry, and and strawberry, this beautifully balanced red blend showcases bright acidity and a rich, velvety mouthfeel. Enticing flavours of plum, dark chocolate, and black liquorice are followed by a long, smooth finish.
Food match
Portabello mushroom with butter and garlic, slow-braised beef or hard cheeses such as an aged cheddar or gouda.
