Clos Du Val is nestled in the heart of Stags Leap district - one of my favorite areas in Napa to wine taste. As you walk in, you see several canopied seating areas that are marked "reserved". As we found out very soon thereafter, they're reserved for club members, which is a definite perk for becoming a member because it's a delightful set up for an afternoon wine tasting.

Our server was very nice and verbose. He explained the history of the winery and the style of wines that they make. They have several chardonnays, pinot noirs and cabernet sauvignons. I personally don't like the style of Clos Du Val wines as they are very French. I prefer California style. But the wines here are very well made and definitely worth a taste.
