2023 Les Deux Frères

The second wine the brothers dreamt up for BENOM, Les Deux Frères (“The Two Brothers”) was created with pleasure in mind. A combination of Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon & Syrah, this wine is inspired by France with a Paso Robles twist.

THE STRUCTURE

Les Deux Frères is our unique interpretation of what Paso Robles’ terroir has to offer. By blending the beautiful characteristics of both Old World style and Paso Robles personality, this wine is focused on purity and pleasure. Grenache brings brightness with earth and minerality, while the Cabernet Sauvignon adds darkness and tannin structure, and Syrah brings texture and polished tannins, resulting in a wine that is approachable in its youth yet promises to age gracefully.

Tasting Notes

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.
