Winery Description:

Longing for new challenges, Claire and Gonzague embarked on a common adventure in 2012, far from their lands of the Médoc and their Classified Growths, creating their own vineyard as well as wines in their unique style. They wanted to embrace the freedom to cross the Atlantic Ocean and to write a new chapter in their story together. Looking for the exceptional terroir, they chose to emigrate to California for three years with their children. There, they settled on a ten-hectare vineyard nestled in the heart of Sonoma, in Chalk Hill, located at the intersection of the greatest Californian appellations: Russian River, Knight’s Valley and Alexander Valley. The perfect environment for the Bordeaux grape varieties, where they could flourish in the sunny Californian micro climate.The "Acaibo" project, beyond Gonzague and Claire’s personal adventure, was and remains to produce a great Californian terroir wine.
