    Claudia Springs Winery was founded in 1989 by Bob and Claudia Klindt in the picturesque Anderson Valley of Mendocino County, California. The Anderson Valley, located less than 100 miles north of San Francisco, is one of the very best locations for producing fine, cool climate varietals such as Pinot Noir and the white Alsace varietals. The unique combination of warm sunny days and cool foggy nights allows the grapes to mature slowly, developing to their full potential.
    Claudia Springs wines are made exclusively from Mendocino County vineyards with special emphasis on Anderson Valley grapes. We produce incredible estate Pinot Noirs and Pinot Gris from vines planted by Bob and Claudia. We also create award winning single vineyard designated and proprietary blended Zinfandels from premium vineyards in the Redwood Valley and the Mendocino Ridge (1200 feet above the Pacific Ocean) along with a limited production of Viognier.
    Our micro-winery’s annual production remains small at 2,000-2,500 cases. We prefer this level so we can continue to provide hands-on care of each lot of wine as we nurture it from vineyard to bottle. Every bit of the work, from crushing and pressing to bottling, is done by Bob and Claudia. Our hands-on approach allows us to maintain strict, personal quality control.

    Winemaker Bob Klindt
    With winemaker Bob Klindt at the barrels, the winery produced 550 cases of Chardonnay in the first year. Bob coupled his own experience with extension classes in enology (winemaking) at U.C. Davis, and his Chardonnay evolved over ensuing vintages, culminating with a gold medal at the Mendocino County Fair Commercial Wine Competition. The winery began expanding into the Pinot Noir and Zinfandel varietals. These wines have garnered more than their share of gold and double gold medals in recent years. In 2001 and 2002 we had Zinfandels named to the Wine Enthusiast list of Top 100 Wines of the Year.

    2007 Claudia Springs John Ricetti Vineyard Zinfandel
  • Appellation: Redwood Valley
  • Winemaker: Bob Klindt
  • Fairly intense aromas balance notes of forest floor, sweet black raspberry and black cherry fruit and gentle tones of wood spice. Really excellent balance on entry. This is a big wine, no doubt about it, but the balance really makes this deceivingly smooth and easy to drink. The mid-palate is dominated by classic brambly blackberry fruit with hints of pie tobacco, vanilla and nutmeg, and maybe even a hint of white pepper. The finish is clear and crisp with a long, fresh, black raspberry tone. Ve... ...read more

    2007 Claudia Springs Mendocino Zinfandel
  • Appellation: Mendocino County
  • Winemaker: Bob Klindt
  • We took three of our favorite vineyards and created this beautifully balanced wine. Valenti Ranch provides the core of black pepper, cedar and spice. The Vassar Vineyard gives it dusty tannins and cranberry while the Ricetti Vineyard provides black currant and cloves. A complex wine that that begs for a good steak!

    2007 Claudia Springs Vassar Vineyard Zinfandel
  • Appellation: Redwood Valley
  • Winemaker: Bob Klindt
  • Very interesting on the nose, with layers of chocolate, eucalyptus and licorice giving the core of slightly jammy grippy and boysenberry fruit a slight medicinal edge. Lovely freshness and sapid acidity in the mouth gives this a seductive feel and, while the fruit is rich, it takes a bit of a second seat to the structural elements of the wine. The finish is all about sour red fruits and has great length to the cranberry and raspberry fruit tones ending on a very firm mineral tone.
