WINEMAKER NOTES
Composition is a proprietary red wine blend that breaks old paradigms and establishes a new standard in wine blending tradition.  Bringing together old world flavors with their origins in the most distinguished European and Mediterranean regions, Composition has created a luscious, balanced and elegant blend – unlike anything seen (or tasted!) before.  This ultra-premium wine sources grapes from California’s premier growing regions to combine the Old World charm of Spain (Tempranillo), the sophistication of France (Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Petite Verdot), and the elegance of Italy (Barbera)

The Cloud 9 philosophy
To produce wines that optimize the sensory experience of each and every bottle we craft.  Secondarily, we strive to produce wines of distinctive character, so that when one tastes any Cloud 9 offering, it is immediately apparent that the wine is a new taste adventure and a new wine discovery - not just another example of a specific varietal or a specific style. Our goal is to exceed your expectations in every bottle from every vintage.  Composition evolves on your palate: in every sip you will notice a different sensory characteristic.

Wine Sourcing
We scour California’s premier regions for the best grapes, grown under conditions to optimize flavor.  "Terroir" is an overused and often misunderstood term in this industry, but it reflects part of Cloud 9's distinctively.  Vineyard 1869, which produces Seity Zinfandel, adds a distinctive chocolate character to all wines produced from this vineyard.  Our next release, a Syrah from Baby Rattlesnake Vineyard possesses a distinctive black walnut character that complements the natural spice of the Syrah grape.

Our winemaker, Scott Harvey, is known throughout California as one of the premier blending winemakers in the wine industry.  His artistry and creativity are evident in every bottle of Cloud 9 wine.

We control production and vineyard yield.  There are no plans to expand Cloud 9 production beyond five wines and a maximum of 5,000 cases.

In our blended wines, the focus is on flavor, not adherence to artificially-limiting regional protocols.  For example, our flagship Composition is a blend of grapes with origins in France, Italy, and Spain – not just grapes with traditional Bordeaux or Burgundy regional limitations.
