Clos du Soleil Signature 2022
British Columbia, CanadaThe Signature label is Clos du Soleil's flagship red blend. It's modelled on great Bordeaux blends and is usually aged 16 months in French oak barrels. The nose blends graphite, ripe berry jam, cedar, cassis, black pepper, dried herbs, and spice. On the palate, the structure is silky, with well managed tannins and refreshing acidity. The flavours are intensely red, reminiscent of raspberry and pomegranate, dusted with spice and underpinned by a mineral, wet stone character. The finish has some Similkameen wildness, adding complexity and setting it apart from most other red blends grown outside the Similkameen. The blend includes 4 vineyards: Clos du Soleil Estate, Clos du Soleil Le Cote, Blind Creek, and Cawston Creek Vineyards. In 2022, the blend was a 36/34/14/11/5 mix of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc, petit verdot, and malbec.Tasted: 03 October 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $55.90 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers, restaurants |
