2015 Cabernet Sauvignon
Each year our Cabernet Sauvignon is a fan favorite and with such a limited production of just 224 cases, this vintage didn’t last long upon release in 2017. We tucked the remaining cases away to share with our Insiders and we’re glad we did as it’s tasting phenomenal right now! Deep in color, this wine begins with aromas of anise, dark cherry, cinnamon sugar and a hint of vanilla. Remarkably elegant on the palate, you’ll find flavors of black currant, black cherry and baking spice that lead to a long, lingering finish that will leave you wishing for more!

2015 Improv
This wonderful, eclectic blend of Merlot, Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot is truly an improvisational blend. Beginning with a deep purple color, the Petite Sirah shines through on the nose with aromas of Java plum and vanilla. The Petit Verdot comes through on the palate with good structure and flavors of dark plum, dried fig, sweet tobacco and a hint of coffee that continues on the long-lasting finish. It’s phenomenal!

2015 Zinfandel
Our 2015 vintage is showing exceptionally well right now! The deep garnet color and aromas of dried cranberry, leather, vanilla and baking spice draw you in. Lively on the palate with flavors of red currant, strawberry rhubarb pie, tart cherry and a hint of cinnamon with good acidity, this vintage is similar to our current 2018 vintage that has been perfectly aged! The red fruit characteristics lead to a hint of oak on the finish. Great on its own but also very food friendly!
2015 Prelude (White Rhone Blend)
Here at Écluse we get to harvest some of the most exceptional fruit in Paso Robles and this is evident in our newest release of our white Rhone Style Blend, Prelude! This wine continues to challenge the senses because of its complexity. The beautiful golden straw color and aromas of stone fruit and orange blossom lure you in and continue on the palate along with notes of citrus. Enjoy it perfectly chilled on a hot summer day or with a delicious pear salad or cheese plate!

2015 Ensemble
Incredibly rich in color, notes of sweet tobacco and vanilla lead to blueberry pie on the nose. This full bodied Bordeaux blend excites the palate with flavors of cranberry, bright red fruit and dried cherries with good structure and perfect balance. Phenomenal now but will continue to age beautifully - if you can wait!

2015 Insider
This year’s release is a wonderful Bordeaux style blend with an Écluse twist as it includes the first Tannat of our very own Lock Vineyard. The gorgeous violet color leads to aromas of toasted oak, dark fruit and coffee. This wine was beautifully aged in more new oak creating a rich palate with flavors of black cherry, dark berries and smoke with a lusciously bold finish.
2015 Rendition
Each year this blend is our rendition of the traditional “GSM” Rhone blend. In this vintage we added a small amount of Petite Sirah to the traditional blend and we are thrilled with the result! Anchored with our Lock Vineyard Syrah, this vintage exhibits the classic characteristics of a Rhone-style blend from our property. Beginning with a beautiful ruby color, the savory nose entices you with aromas of vanilla, smoke and dark fruit. This wine dances on the palate with notes of plum, leather, tobacco and spice that lingers on the finish. Enjoy!
2015 Petite Sirah
The gorgeous inky purple color will stain your glass while the elegant nose invites you to explore the complex aromas of dark fruit, violets and cinnamon. Flavors of Java plum, cherry cola, blackberry and hint of spice on the palate lead to silky tannins that round out to a luscious, velvety smooth finish that will leave you wishing for more!
