NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Clos du Soleil Signature is a finely balanced and structured red blend.On the nose, aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, and cedar are complemented by hints of mocha, clove, and warm spice. The palate is rich and intense, with ripe tannins and a long finish. It has layers of complexity and depth of flavor, with a vibrant and silky texture. This is a perfect wine for enjoying with friends and family.
