Description from the Producer
Clos du Soleil's Estate Reserve wines form the pinnacle of our portfolio, and are designed to showcase the unique terroir of our Upper Bench estate vineyard sites. The 2020 vintage is nuanced, rich and complex. A layered and complex wine, yet still displaying delicacy, this is a wine which can age for many years.
Nose
The nose immediately signals the uniqueness of this wine: perfumed floral aromas of violet, complemented by cedar, blackberry, raspberry, and forest undergrowth, with notes of leather and crushed stones.
Mouth
On the palate the wine is full and fresh, dominated by ripe berries such as raspberries, blackberries and blackcurrants, with notes of pencil shavings and gravel. The tannins are very fine and exceptionally elegant. The bright acidity brings freshness and lushness, leading to a very long finish.

Winemaking Notes
The 2020 growing season was characterized by a warm spring and summer followed by long moderately warm autumn ripening seasoning, leading to a ripe yet balanced vintage of this iconic wine. Each variety was hard-harvested separately at peak maturity, then gently destemmed, crushed and gravity-fed into concrete fermentation tanks. Following a moderate cold-soak the wines were fermented using only native, wild yeasts to reinforce terroir expression. Each variety was vinified separately and then matured in 100% French oak barrels for 18 months. Entirely unfined and unfiltered, as with all Clos du Soleil wines the focus was on minimal handling and minimal intervention, to best showcase our unique terroir.
