Broc Cellars is a Berkeley-based natural winery, established in 2004 by owner and winemaker Chris Brockway, that makes refreshing and approachable wines for everyday drinking. Broc Cellars makes natural wine the way they believe delivers the best wines for wine drinkers and the earth. They source throughout California making wine using only organically-farmed grapes. Chris uses native yeasts and never adds sulfur during fermentation, though occasionally add a small amout at bottling depending on the wine, style and vintage. In 2023, Chris purchased Fox Hill Vineyard in Mendocino County after a decade of sourcing their fruit, allowing Broc Cellars to extend their vision of simple and ethical winemaking into the vineyard.
Le Clairet "The Perfect Red" is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon (10% of which was made into a rosé before blended back into the main wine) sourced from the famed Wirth Ranch Vineyards in the Solano County Green Valley AVA. The wine was fermented (10% whole cluster) with indigenous yeasts and no sulfur. The Perfect Red displays surprising freshness with a nose of red berry fruit and earth. The palate is medium to full-bodied with ripe, red fruit with hints of herbs and spice and delightfully mild tannins. An ideal wine for pizza or burger night!
