clos de la tech. where silicon valley meets old-world w**emaking.
what happens when a tech visionary becomes obsessed with pinot noir?
meet clos de la tech, an extraordinary w**ery tucked into the santa cruz mountains, founded by T.J. Rodgers, the Silicon Valley entrepreneur behind Cypress Semiconductor, and his wife Valeta.
inspired by the great w**es of burgundy, clos de la tech takes a decidedly unconventional approach to w**emaking.
steep hillside vineyards. ultra-high-density planting. meticulous farming. whole-cluster fermentation. and a remarkable commitment to traditional, hands-on techniques, paired with cutting-edge technology.
the result? small-production, estate-grown pinot noir with remarkable depth, structure, and a true sense of place.
