2025 Fall release
As fall nears, we're thrilled to release our highly anticipated 2023 reds: Origin, Les Deux Frères, Lapsus and Le Vingt. Each captures the essence of a vintage we believe to be one of the best in recent history.
The 2023 growing season was exceptional. A cool, steady spring led to even flowering and set the stage for a mild summer. These conditions allowed the fruit to develop incredible depth, freshness, and precision. From the beginning of harvest, we knew it was something special, and our excitement only grew as the wines took shape in barrel. The 2023 vintage gifted us with wines of striking poise - bright, mineral-driven and built to shine over time. These wines are perfect for cozy dinners and crisp fall evenings, and we hope they bring warmth, connection, and celebration to your season.
Beyond this release, it’s been a rewarding year at BENOM. This spring, we grafted our estate vineyard, an investment we’re excited to watch grow. Summer has been spent tending the vineyard as we approach veraison. In the winery, Guillaume and the team are preparing for the rush of harvest. Though still a few months away, there’s a special energy in this time of preparation. Through it all, one of the greatest joys has been sharing these moments with you - catching up in the tasting room, reconnecting at events, and hearing your stories and favorite wines along the way.
Thank you for being part of the BENOM family. Your support means the world to us, and we can’t wait to raise a glass with you soon.
About the Fall Wines
2023 Origin
100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Origin has a deep, luminous dark red hue that immediately draws the eye. The nose is expressive with notes of ripe cherry layered with a delicate touch of graphite and a subtle lift of fresh herbs. On the palate, it’s plush and vibrant. Juicy red fruit flavors build with each sip. As the wine opens, a subtle note of fresh jalapeño adds a hint of complexity. The texture is velvety and seamless, with fine-grained tannins that lend structure. It all comes together in a long, polished finish that leaves a lasting impression of balance, freshness, and elegance.
2023 Les Deux Frères
70% Grenache · 24% Cabernet Sauvignon · 6% Syrah
Les Deux Frères is a deep, vibrant red in the glass. The nose is bright and inviting, with aromas of juicy cherry and gentle herbal notes adding freshness and lift. It’s expressive on the palate — pomegranate and dark cherry notes unfold with a brush of cocoa, all wrapped in a smooth, rounded texture. Each variety plays a distinct role: Grenache brings vibrancy and lift, Cabernet Sauvignon lends structure and depth, and Syrah layers in dark fruit and a refreshing edge. Polished tannins lead to a long, graceful finish, where energy and elegance are beautifully in sync.
2023 Lapsus
27% Graciano · 27% Syrah · 26% Cabernet Sauvignon · 20% Mourvèdre
Lapsus opens with a captivating nose of dark berries, oak, and a touch of fresh herbs. On the palate, Graciano adds softness and a burst of vivid red fruit, bringing both richness and lift to the mid-palate. Cabernet Sauvignon adds layers of concentrated dark fruit, while Mourvèdre introduces earthy depth and quiet intrigue. A hint of spice and savory nuance from Syrah ties the blend together, leading to a bright, lingering finish framed by smooth, refined tannins.
2023 Le Vingt
Sold Out
70% Grenache · 18% Mourvèdre · 8% Carignan · 4% Syrah
Le Vingt is vibrant, expressive, and effortlessly approachable. Grenache delivers a burst of ripe raspberry, lifted by delicate floral notes of violet and rose petal. The palate is juicy and layered. Raspberry notes mingle with cedar, fennel, and anise. Carignan brings savory depth and a thread of dried herbs, while Syrah adds brightness and a hint of spice. Mourvèdre grounds the wine with subtle earthiness, lending texture and complexity to a smooth, nuanced finish.
