The Clark-Claudon Vineyards are peaceful, a solace to family and friends. From season to season the vineyards produce exceptional fruit and feed the family’s soul as they practice the age-old art of wine growing.

Their business was founded in the old tradition of family winemaking where art and science begin in the vineyard and end with a beautiful bottle of wine. Clark-Claudon Vineyards has received critical acclaim for both their Clark-Claudon Estate Grown Cabernet and now, for their Bordeaux Blend, Eternity. Eternity represents the collaboration of two great vineyard managers—Tom and Josh Clark, and two master winemakers, Frederic Delivert and Jean Hoefliger. Their goal was to take the tiny, intensely concentrated Clark-Claudon fruit and craft a world class Reserve Bordeaux Blend.

According to Laurie Claudon and Tom Clark, it takes three generations to produce a wine the caliber of Eternity: the wisdom of the first generation, the second generation’s drive to continue raising the bar, and the love and playfulness of the third generation to feed the inspiration.

This vertical of Eternity is a shining example of the success of this family partnership, and the 3L of Clark-Claudon Estate a testament to the enduring legacy of this family’s commitment to excellence.
