Tasting Notes from Cork’d Members

Clos Du Val 2002 Cabernet Sauvigon
(over 2 years ago) buddy icon iowinos 87.0/100
Good cabernet that bucks the trend of super ripe, jammy wines. More old world in style, this one is subtle in its cassis and spice notes. I would think this one will be great for the next ten years.

Update May 2007 - This wine still seems fairly tight, with cassis, leather, and soy nuances. Wine is medium bodied and not overly tannic, still showing a very nice balance. Probably on the five year plan rather than ten, I would suggest drinking before 2012.
