Bogle Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 (California)

Description

• Cherry 
• Red currant jam 
• Black pepper 
• Stellar tannins 

Deep plum colour in the glass. The bouquet is presents deeply extracted cherry and bright cassis aromas that arrest the senses. The nose carries through to palate. Swiftly followed by red currant jam and black pepper, the supple mouthfeel fills out this full-bodied wine. Toasty coconut and spicy oak from the American oak heightens the dense fruit, and the wine finishes with stellar tannins softened by just a hint sweet pipe tobacco.

The Bogle family has been farming since the mid-1800’s. Though it was not until 1968 that the father and son team of Warren and Chris Bogle planted their first 20 acres of wine grapes in Clarksburg, California. Today Bogle Vineyards farms over 1,500 acres of grapes. While the winery was established ten years after the first grapes were planted, its success has grown tremendously along with the vineyards. The Petite Sirah has been named 'Heritage' because this was the first variety planted by the Bogle's back in 1968.

Six generations of Bogle’s have worked the soils of this fabulous wine region and good stewardship has always been of utmost importance. Today all of the Bogle’s 1,500 acres are currently farmed under the State of California CCSW sustainability guidelines. Additionally the Bogle family is currently one of just a few wineries who pays a bonus to winegrowers who enroll their vineyards in the 'Certified Green' sustainability program. As Bogle winemaker's believe that taking care of our land and preserving its vitality is not only their responsibility, but will allow the next generation to enjoy many bountiful harvests for years to come.

Each and every Bogle wine created is a unique and exciting blend with true varietal character and an approachable style. With their deep commitment to quality, the Bogle family would not have it any other way.
