The 2015 Clos du Val 'Estate' Pinot Noir was sourced from the Gran Val Vineyard in Carneros. The Pinot Noir wine wed aged for 15 months in 58% new French oak prior to bottling. It is a blend of Dijon clone 667 and Pommard. This wine opens with aromatics of rhubarb, bramble, black cherry and cola. This leads to ripe flavors of black tea, black cherry, crushed mint and strawberry preserves. This will cellar beautifully for a decade or more. (Best 2017-2027) - May, 2017 (OB)
