Chardonnay for people who know what it's like to live a little
Clos du Bois Chardonnay V20 750ML
Our Clos du Bois Chardonnay is a refreshingly aromatic wine from the rugged coast of California. Scents of warm apple pastry rise from the glass with touches of honey and toasted oak. Bright layers of freshly sliced pear and ripe apple with zests of citrus carry through the long finish.
<br><br>
Fruit for this classic Chardonnay originates from select vineyards along the coast of California. The North Coast imparts ripe apple and pear characteristics, while the Central Coast brings full, concentrated flavor and a gorgeous acidity to the grapes.
<br><br>
We harvested the grapes in the cool of night, then gently pressed them to preserve the Chardonnay’s fruit characteristics. After settling, the juice was partially barrel fermented in a combination of French and American oak, with the remaining juice undergoing fermentation in stainless steel. To soften the wine’s acidity and impart a rich and creamy mouthfeel, we put the wine through malolactic fermentation.
Clos du Bois Cabernet Sauvignon V19 750ML
Our classic Cabernet Sauvignon displays aromas of black currant, blackberry and toasted oak. Concentrated black fruit and a smooth texture lead to a complex and slightly dry finish. The wine pairs perfectly with your favorite grilled meats or veggies.
Clos du Bois Pinot Grigio V20 750ML
Our classic Pinot Grigio displays intense aromas of white peach, melon and pink grapefruit, with delicate hints of floral notes. Lively acidity with bright citrus and grapefruit notes notes lead to a crisp and refreshing finish. Enjoy a glass chilled by itself, or pair with your favorite Asian or shellfish dishes.
Clos du Bois Pinot Noir V21 750ML
Our 2021 Clos du Bois Pinot Noir is an approachable, medium-bodied red wine from California. Aromas of cherry and vanilla bean rise from the glass with a touch of anise. This wine brims with layers of sweet cherry, strawberry and raspberry with a silky mouthfeel. Ribbons of toasted oak and caramel underscore the fruit, leading to a long finish.

<b>Viticulture Notes</b><br>
This elegant Pinot Noir is sourced from select vineyards in some of California’s most renowned growing regions. The 2021 growing season experienced a warm spring, which brought on early budbreak. Dry conditions served to further reduce crops size. However, anticipated diurnal temperature shifts kept the fruit from ripening too quickly and allowed it to develop slowly and evenly.

<b>Winemaking Notes</b><br>
We prefer to harvest our Pinot Noir in the cool early morning hours, which helps preserve the inherent fruit character of the grapes. After it is delivered to the winery, we gently destem and send mostly whole berries directly to stainless steel fermenters to be cold soaked at 60-65°F for up to 2 days. During primary fermentation, we meticulously managed the extraction on skins to capture a silky tannin structure. To create subtle hints of vanilla and toasted oak, we racked the wine onto oak and let it age for 3-4 months. Individual lots were then chosen and combined to create the final blend.
Clos du Bois Buttery Chardonnay V20 750ML
Our Buttery Chardonnay is rich in flavor with a creamy texture. Aromas of spiced pear and pineapple are complimented by hints of vanilla and toasted oak. Enjoy a glass chilled by itself, or pair with vegetable risotto, grilled lemon chicken or pan seared salmon.
