Three Thieves Bonnie 2005 White Zinfandel

Wine Makers Legend
The Legend of BonnieBonnie entered the scene while the Thieves were still trying to locate their first haul. She was not like the other ladies. She could rope a steer better than any Cowboy this side of the Mississippi, ride a bronco into the ground, and make a Cowboy swoon like no other. With brains, beauty and courage like no other woman they had ever met, all of the boys vied for her attention. Yet, much like a wild Mustang, Bonnie’sheart could not be won, nor her spirit be tamed by any man. Despite their best efforts at wooing her, the boys struck out with this singular lady. Bonnie rode off into the sunset one evening, but she has never been far from their hearts or minds since. In honor of Bonnie, and all the women of the world like her, TheThree Thieves have created a brand new vintage. Three Thieves White Zinfandel captures and celebrates the spirit of women who are beautiful, bold and adventurous everywhere. The kind of woman that always gets away, but never leaves your heart or your memories.VineyardsBonnie White Zinfandel is made from premium grapes for some of California’s best growing regions, including Delta/Lodi and Monterey County. Thief/winemaker Joel Gott and his band of trusty cellarmastersselect and blend the lots for authentic varietal, character, taste, and value.WinemakingAfter harvesting, the grapes are immediately pressed and the free run juice is cold-fermented in stainless steel for 10 days. The wine spends no time in oak and is bottled shortly after the first of the new year to preserve its fresh, fruity qualities. Tasting NotesDelicate and blush pink in color with sweet aromas of strawberries and watermelon, but on the palate, the wine is fresh and lively and bursting with fruit. A wine fitting of alady with delicate features and a feisty attitude, Bonnie White Zinfandel is enjoyed well-chilled as an aperitif or as the perfect partner to all types offood, particularly those which have slight heat or spiciness.
