Clos du Bois Rouge Red Blend is a California wine
that is a mix of blackberry, plum, roasted coffee, chocolate and spice. It has
a nice smell with a slightly high alcohol aroma (13.5% by Vol). It has a dark
red look that is an indication of the dark berries and chocolate. The wine legs
appear to have a moderate level of sugar included. Yet this does not appear to
detract from the taste as it mixes well with the type of berry. There is very light but pleasant tannin aftertaste,
which helps to put it in the category of table wines for everyday use.
This would be a nice holiday wine or burger wine
that ranges in price from $10 to $13. It might work well with steak and other
greasy type foods. When throwing a get together and not knowing which type of
wine will appeal to the most people this will work well. It appears to be light
in taste with enough sweetness to move toward the desert category. Therefore,
it works well in multiple arenas and events.
The wine is made at the Clos Du Bois Winery and has
been operating 35 years. They have around 800 acres in Sonoma County to support
their operations. It is possible to
visit the winery and engage in a wine tasting event for $10 or a wine seminar
for $50. They also have full tours to see and understand the wine making
process and facilities
