Clos Solène is a family-owned winery on the west side of Paso Robles in the heart of the Willow Creek District. Guillaume runs on passion, which he claims is alive because the love of his life has faith and trust in him. When Guillaume met Solene, he says it was like a bolt of lightning struck and he fell in love. The same happened when Guillaume moved to Paso Robles in 2004 for a harvest internship at L’Aventure. He fell in love with the terroir and convinced his muse, Solène, to relocate from Bordeaux and chase a dream together.
The first vintage of Clos Solène was born in 2007. Guillaume and Solène actively searched for a piece of land to call home for several years. After purchasing an estate in 2017, the family lives at the farmhouse on the property, waking each morning to the serenity of the rolling hills, the greenery of the vines and the laughter of their children. Guillaume has named all his favorite wines after his children – Sweet Clémentine, Cuvée Jean and the arrival of Cuvée Juliette in 2019. Together, Guillaume and Solène have worked tirelessly, with passion as their energy, to create Clos Solène. They hope to greet you at the estate and invite you to join them as they continue to build their dream.
