Release date if March 21st, be one of the first and few to try this great wine, only 200 cases made.
(Clos du Soleil 2008 Capella)
A great blend 95% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% Semillon with aromas of honeycomb and figs. It has a nice roundness to the texture with impressive concentration and complexity.
(Clos du Soleil 2007 White)
Aromas of lemon, caramel and marzipan. Elegant and fresh on the palate
(Clos du Soleil 2008 Signature Red)
Deeply coloured, this award winning wine has a rich, intense nose with dark plum and cocoa nuances. The finish is long with soft tanins and balancing acidity.
(Clos du Soleil 2007 Red)
Bright red fruit and leather, with cedar box notes. Medium to full-bodied with a fine grained texture and plenty of juicy fruit.
(Sperling Vineyards 2009 Sper…tz)
Fresh, crisp aromatic and the light spritz adds to the wine’s delicacy on the palate.
