Clos Solene is one of the most exciting young wineries in Paso Robles. Guillaume and Solene Fabre run this tiny property while working at L’Aventure and Halter Ranch respectively. Guillaume Fabre, a native of Languedoc, learned to make wine working alongside his father, but the lure of the American dream was too strong, and in 2004 Fabre moved to Paso Robles. These sleek, artisanal wines are well worth seeking out, even if pricing is high by Paso Robles standards.

2008 Hommage a nos Pairs Pris: 625,00 DKK
   Lager antal: 3


The brilliant 2008 Hommage a Nos Pairs is a blend of 96% Syrah and 4% Grenache from the Russell Family Vineyard on the west side of Highway 101, planted on limestone soils. Remarkably, it was aged in 100% new French oak for 18 months, but it doesn’t show much evidence of vanilla or toast. A beautiful blue/purple with oodles of black raspberries and floral notes intermixed with some boysenberry and wild mountain berries, this superb wine is full-bodied but elegant, with tremendous purity and richness. Drink it over the next decade.

This artisinal winery in Paso Robles is run by Frenchman Guillaume Fabre. His 2008 Roussanne emerged from the limestone soils of the Booker Vineyard, and the 2009 came from both the James Berry and Booker Vineyards, both top-notch sites. Fabre is definitely an up-and-coming, serious producer from California’s Central Coast.

2009 Clos Solene "Ma Premier" Pris: 800,00 DKK
   Lager antal: 12
The 2009 Ma Premiere is 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah made from tiny yields of just one ton per acre, with the bottom and ears of each bunch trimmed. It is a gorgeous, totally sensual wine graced with expressive red fruit. It shows striking delineation and textural brilliance in a sleek style that is unlike any other wine being made today in Paso Robles. The refined finish is all class and elegance. This is just a super effort from Guillaume and Solene Fabre. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021.  Robert Parker 93
