The Goelet family's original vision to produce world-class wines that express the terroir of the vineyards from which they are crafted remains the underlying essence of Clos Du Val wines and all of the Goelet Wine Estates sister wineries. Goelet established Clos Du Val in 1972 with 150 acres of vineyards in what is known now as the Stags Leap District of Napa Valley. Soon after\, he acquired 180 acres of prime Carneros hillside vineyards. Clos Du Val's first release\, a 1972 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon\, was chosen as one of six California Cabernets to compete against French Bordeaux wines at the infamous 1976 Paris Tasting. Ten years later\, the same wine won first place in a rematch of the same American and French wines. The 1986 tasting established Clos du Val's reputation for world-class Cabernet Sauvignon.
