| About
Clark Claudon
Vineyard Wines |
Clark
Claudon
Vineyards
is a
family
owned
and
operated
vineyard
and
winemaking
business.
Our
intent
is to
produce
an exceptional
estate
grown
Cabernet
Sauvignon
that
contributes
to warm
and
playful
moments
as we
share
that
age
old
passion
for
life,
great
wine,
family
and
friends.
Knowing
that
the
wine
Clark
Claudon
Winery
produces
from
the
vineyard
that
we love
ends
up on
your
table
is a
connection
that
we celebrate!

1996
Cabernet
Sauvignon
Considering
most
wines
from
Napa
now
a days
are
fruit
driven,
I really
enjoyed
this
big,
thick
and
tannic
Cab.
I watched
evolve
in the
bottle
and
glass
for
two
hours
and
loved
every
minute
of it.
Luckily
I have
another
bottle
to keep
for
10 -15
years.

1998
Cabernet
Sauvignon
An incredible
1998
Cabernet
Sauvignon,
Clark
Claudon
Winery
has
proven
that
even
in what
is considered
as off
year,
amazing
wines
can
be produced.
An opaque
purple
color
is accompanied
by a
fabulous
bouquet
of blackberries,
blueberries,
and
cassis
intermixed
with
camphor
and
new
wood.
This
beautifully
balanced,
rich,
full-bodied
Cabernet
is a
model
of symmetry
and
purity.
A seamless
classic,
it can
be drunk
now
or cellared
for
another
15+
years.

1999
Cabernet
Sauvignon
Medium
red.
Currant,
dark
chocolate,
menthol
and
a whiff
of game
on the
nose.
Juicy
on entry,
then
firm-edged
and
cool,
with
bitter
cherry
and
floral
flavors
nicely
framed
by brisk
acidity.
Has
a penetrating
quality,
but
ultimately
comes
off
as a
bit
lean,
even
tart,
in the
middle
palate
and
a tad
dry
on the
finish.
