Clos du Val Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2004
- Initially pretty shy and quiet on the nose, so needs some time to breathe before you get much out of it. Once it opens up I'm getting some cherries/currants along with some oak. A hint of spice kinda sneaks through, but there's not much to it. Alcohol clocks in at 13.5%, making it pretty tame by modern Napa cab standards. The finish doesn't hang around too long. For the price ~$30 on sale I wanted a bit more. ~87 points. Got the '04 Merlot next, so we'll see how that goes.
