Opened to the public since September 2008, our boutique
winery is located in the Deep Ellum neighborhood on the
corner of Commerce and Walton. It is the first winery
located in the area, created by Benjamin CALAIS, owner and
winemaker at CALAIS winery.
Benjamin comes from a non-traditional winemaking background,
as he was previously an executive for an IT company when he
was transferred from France to Plano, TX. Long time
passionate about wine and working closely with French
winemakers, Benjamin decided upon leaving this IT company to
dedicate his time and efforts on producing quality wines
here in Dallas, TX.
Three wines are currently released, a Bordeaux “Claret
style” blend, an unoaked Chardonnay and a Cabernet / Syrah
blend. The traditional European blend is inspiring our work
at CALAIS winery and we adapt our techniques to best serve
the taste of our local customers. We plan to expand our
winemaking facility and equipment in order to produce a
greater number of wines.
The first three wines are named after the Deep Ellum streets
surrounding the winery: Elm, Main and Commerce. All the
wines have a double Influence coming from both France, the
birth country of the owner, and the United States. The
winery released its first wine in October 2008.
