Clos Du Bois Rosé
Growing Area: Sonoma County
Vintage: 2007
Price: $11.99 USD
Sorry for the pause in reviews lately however I have been nursing myself back to health (caught a cold). Now that my sinuses have cleared and palate refreshed lets “start” November with a nice Rosé.
Upon visual inspection this Rosé had an amber/orange color when poured into the glass. It somewhat reminded me of a tawny port, color wise that is.
The aroma was a fresh peach and berries, actually quick simple and easily detected. Upon first tastes the Rosé proved to be dry with spicy bitter notes concentrated around wild berry flavors. The finish was moderate, with dry almond notes.
I paired my Clos Du Bois Rosé with Homemade County Ham Bean Soup, Sweet Pickled Relish, and Skilled Fried Cornbread.
Overall I give this wine 2 corks out of 5. In my opinion there are better Rosé’s on the market especially in the $10 - $15 price range.
