“My grandmother's grace, elegance, and subtle strength make her the perfect namesake for our rarest and most age worthy wine. Henrietta ‘Yettalil’ Goelet inspired everyone in our family to live a life of adventure and embrace the joy of bringing happiness to others.
Yettalil is the wine my grandparents dreamed of. A legacy fulfilled and the north star for Clos du Val's next half-century, it is a blended expression of our estate employing all five Bordeaux varieties.”
2022 Yettalil
Yettalil draws you deep into the glass with expressive aromas of dark fruits, fresh sage, tobacco, and spice. The wine sweeps across the palate with polished tannins and a plush texture and the 2022 vintage’s vibrant acidity carries the wine towards a long, smooth finish.
Yettalil is born of our family's origins in Bordeaux and bound by a style of wine that laid the cornerstone of Napa Valley, 'Bordeaux blend' is more than a term of art, it is our heritage and philosophy. Pure and without artifice, Yettalil is crafted for cellaring and rewards patience with its slow unfolding of aromatics and layers of texture.
Wines of true character and harmony emerge from ecosystems of abundance. A careful marriage of grape and ground is the foundation of every great blended wine. From this foundation, we farm in a manner that allows the fruit to express itself, imbuing Yettalil with an abiding sense of place.
We'd love to hear from you.
