Alexandrie Cellars

Alexandrie reflects the culmination of the unique, refined vision of Chloe Bello, a synthesis of her appreciation for wine culture, discriminating palate and superior attention to detail, gained from years of experience working in the fashion industry.  Named in honor of her daughter, Alexandrie sparkling wine is lovingly produced in small batches at Chloe’s boutique, female-owned winery in Napa Valley.

With a passion for sparkling wine and champagne, along with an impeccable eye for design, Chloe was the initial spark behind the formation of Alexandrie and the creator of the collector-quality bottle design. She continues to be the wellspring for all the winery’s distinctive creations.

Chloe has a talent for building relationships that endears her to everyone she meets, and this shines through in her day-to-day life, when she is coordinating special events and tastings, or managing operations.  When creating marketing campaigns and overseeing all aspects of product design, she draws from her extensive professional background in the wine industry, along with her 12 years in fashion, working as a buyer, stylist and designer.

Aside from being a mom, a volunteer and wife to Christopher Bello, Chloe likes to further her knowledge of interior design, art and sparkling wine when she isn’t busy working.  A resident of St. Helena for the past seven years and a member of the Napa Valley Vintners, Chloe loves the character, atmosphere and charm of the region.  This has a dramatic influence on the production of Alexandrie, which emphasizes unmatched quality, discerning taste and a timeless bottle design, at a reasonable price.  Chloe and the team at Alexandrie Cellars will continue in this tradition, fusing their combined strengths, experience and sensibilities—with much more to come.

Tasting Notes
This charming sparkling wine jumps out of the glass with aromas of apple meringue, fresh cut apricots and green figs. This primary character evolves to aromatic notes of Asian pear cider wrapped in yeasty bread dough. Flavors of cantaloupe, baked apple tart and ground nutmeg are perfectly balanced by the bright character of ripe clementine tangerine, Meyer lemon and Key lime and finishing with a generous linger of toasty brioche and lively mineral acidity.
