| | Clos Du Bois Chardonnay 2007 | | 2008-07-27 13:55:00 | | 2007North CoastCaliforniaThis is just a brief comment on trying the 2007, thinking it was the 2006. The Guy brought this home last week to please me following a week of no wine. While I normally prefer "new" wines to review, I was so happy that it was my old standby (or so I thought). I tasted it and, though it was good, it was different and not as "minerally" or finish-lasting as my norm. So I quizically studied the label. It was 2007 in lieu of 2006. I was pretty thrilled to realize I can tell the difference a year makes! Anyway, still a good wine, but I will pay more for the 2006 flavor.And you read your Emily Dickinson,And I my Robert Frost,And we note our place with bookmarkersThat measure what weve lost.Like a poem poorly writtenWe are verses out of rhythm,Couplets out of rhyme,In syncopated timeLost in the dangling conversationAnd the superficial sighs,Are the borders of our lives.Simon & Garfunkel, Dangling Conversations7.75 out of 10$22 / 1.5 L bottlehttp://closdubois.com/ | | By: What To Drink Tonight | | |

| Clos Du Bois Sauvignon Blanc | | 2008-06-30 22:13:00 | | 2006North CoastCaliforniaMatt & Corrine - Thank you for your comment - I have responded if you check back to your Renwood note. Thank you again, for stopping by.Will drink again - with seafood next time.The Guy, with the best of intentions I'm sure, thought he'd bring me home my favorite summertime staple: Clos Du Bois . . . Chardonnay. He brought home a BIG bottle of the Sauvignon Blanc instead. I actually had not had it before - because I am not particularly fond of Sauvignon Blanc as I don't like a zip to my wine - I like it more heavy bodied and smooth. Anyway, I "suffered" through a couple of glasses and actually found I enjoyed the flavor. It was good with a simple grilled chicken Caesar Salad. A bit citrusy with melon, it had a slight woodsy finish that I liked.The next evening, in the sweltering heat of my Cape's upstairs, after struggling to put in air conditioners, I poured myself a glass in my newly cleaned bedroom, plucked myself in front of the air conditioner in my gr | | By: What To Drink Tonight | | |

| | Clos du Bois 2004 Chardonnay | | 2007-10-07 17:56:00 | | 2004Sonoma ValleyCaliforniaWill definitely buy again.We went to a family surprise party held privately down by the sub base at this little hole-in-the-wall bar "VooDoo Daddy's". We had a great time and I enjoyed a few glasses of Clos du Bois' 2004 Chardonnay. It was very good and really hit the spot for some reason. First taste was of strong oak and pear followed by intense buttery vanilla - just what I long for in a Chardonnay. I had a lengthy conversation with the bartender who did a great job of seeking me out and keeping my wine glass full. She's really young and her husband is serving in the Navy. He was home for the day and she had to work and he was shipping out for Japan the next day - not a happy bartender. But she still took care of me.I did not take a picture of the bottle so I thought I'd share a picture my daughter actually took of the wall.8.0 out of 1013.5% alc. by vol.$11-14 / 750 bottlehttp://www.closdubois.com/ | | By: What To Drink Tonight | | |

| Food Pairing Update on Clos du Bois Zin (and a little more than I bargained for) | | 2007-05-13 04:11:00 | | Though I made tacos for my children, I decided to make myself some "healthy" sweet Italian sausage (made with organic chicken and sweet red pepper and green pepper) and pair it with last night's Clos du Bois Zin (which recommends Italian Sausage as an accompaniment). It was slightly better. Probably by just over one half point more. For some reason, it hit me harder. I had less wine tonight and it effected me more.I was quietly emotional and reflective and felt the wine warming me (which felt really good). Of course my custom CD playing in the background probably played a slight part in the overall experience as well - I went from listening to my Billie Holiday collection to The Beatles "Let It Be," Kansas' "Dust in the Wind," U2's "With or Without You," Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here," ending with Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes." I watched my beautiful children and listened to them just innocently talking and told them how very much they mean to me and how much I so want them to | | By: What To Drink Tonight | | |
| | Clos du Bois Zinfandel 2004 | | 2007-05-12 04:53:00 | | Clos du Bois2004 ZinfandelNorth CoastGeyersville, CAclosdubois.com$11.99 / bottleRating: Would most likely drink again with the right cuisine.7 out of 10 (I hate my weak rating system but it's quick and best for now though I'm consuming way too many 7's)Not bad on its own, just doesn't knock my socks off either though. A little on the dryer and bitter side for me, slightly more pepper yet enough fruit to make me take another sip. This wine would probably taste great with the right food pairing - the bottle recommends an Italian Sausage or Grilled Lamb Chop pairing (neither of which are currently part of my diet).*California Wine Fact: Early California winemakers sent their children to study oenology at Geisenheim (Germany) or Bordeaux (France). Today, many European winemakers send their children to the University of California at Davis and to Fresno State University.*(Taken from Kevin Zraly's "Windows On The World Complete Wine Course")From the Clos du Bois website on their Zindfa | | By: What To Drink Tonight | | |
