Winemaker Notes

Bright crimson in color. Earth, spice and floral aromas jump out of the glass. Strawberry, dark cherry and flavors are vibrant and engaging. Firm acidity and
spice notes on the finish. 

Food Pairing

Bright and intense in flavor, but very well balanced. This wine pairs well with a wide range of foods from salmon, roasted chicken, rich pastas or can be enjoyed on its own.

Winery Notes

As Cloisonne has grown our line up of wines we have continued to focus on California's finest regions. From Russian River Valley and Alexander Valley to Napa the 2020 through 2021 vintages had smaller harvests, but beautiful growing seasons. Delivering wines of exceptional ripeness and balance.

In the winery, we focused on maintaining the bright fruit by only aging in French oak for a few months and usually only with 10-30% new oak. Allowing the fruit aromas and flavors to shine while delivering a complex set of wines that we are truly proud of. We hope you enjoy our latest bottlings.
