The 2000 Clos du Bois Pinot Noir is an elegant wine that offers forward cherry and plum flavors highlighted by rich vanilla and toasty oak nuances and a soft supple texture. Pinot Noir is a very versatile food wine - wonderful with dishes ranging from herbed chicken to peppercorn steak or freshly grilled salmon. The graceful flavors of this Pinot Noir also make a fine accompaniment to many vegetarian dishes.
