Winemaker's Notes:

 A deep black, cherry-red Zinfandel with inviting aromas of plum, blackberry, black licorice and baking spice. This complex, well-integrated Zin is fruit-forward, with plenty of wild strawberry, brambly blackberry, black pepper, supple tannins and light hints of toasted oak and baking spice.

This spicy, juicy Zinfandel calls for slow-roasted barbecue or marinated pulled pork.

About Clos du Bois Winery:

 When Clos du Bois was founded in 1974, Sonoma County was better known for its prunes, walnuts and dairy farms than for its wine grapes. With more soil types than France, Founder Frank Woods recognized the potential of Sonoma County as a world-class wine growing region, and it is here in Sonoma's Alexander Valley where Clos du Bois has been making outstanding wines for more than three decades. Woods' vision was to marry the best of California wines, which were rich, fruit forward and robust, with the best of French wines, which had an undeniable elegance. With a focus on sourcing the best quality grapes from Alexander Valley, Russian River Valley and the surrounding North Coast, the resulting collection of wines highlight the best of Sonoma County in a style that is both elegant and approachable - the signature of Clos du Bois.
