The 2010 Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon from Clos du Val delivers aromas of black cherries and plum, followed by mocha, smoky ash, minerals and a savory dried herb character. This full-bodied red is wrapped in round polished tannins, which are nicely structured. The finish is long and supple, folding in another layer of ripe fruits and a touch of spice. The final blend consists of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc. (Best 2015-2024) - November, 2014 (JD)
