Score 90/100 · Drink 2023-2025, Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, Mar 2024
A blend of 93% Sauvignon Blanc and 7% Sémillon, Clos du Val's 2022 Sauvignon Blanc was fermented in a mix of barrels and stainless-steel tanks, then aged in so-called cigar barrels, where it is stirred regularly for five or six months. Despite the wood, this medium-bodied wine is bright and fresh, with notes of key lime, grapefruit and riper hints of nectarine, fig and melon.

The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc is terrific, with a great perfume of exotic citrus, papaya, and mint herbs in a medium-bodied, clean, balanced, nicely textured style. It will be incredibly versatile on the dinner table.
