Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Apr 2023

Awarded American Winery of the Year

Wine Enthusiast, 2019

Description

  • American oak
  • Green apple
  • Honeycomb
  • Soft finish

"Bright, pale yellow, even colour throughout. The nose is gently full and appealing, with citrus, pineapple, toasty oak and spice aromas, and a hint of almond. Full-bodied, aromas of lemon, lemon rind and pineapple have a fresh core, unfolding roasted almond, oak spice and minerals. The mouthfeel is creamy and voluminous, nicely contrasting a focused, ripe acid drive. Fine-textured phenolics added chewiness, flow with nutty elements to a sustained finish. This is a well-rounded Chardonnay with lush fruit, balanced toasty oak and a creamy mouthfeel supported by lively acidity" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Apr 2023

Green apple and pear aromas classically characterize this wine as Clarksburg, while honeycomb and vanilla heighten the first impression. The rich, round entry rolls into a viscous and silky mouthfeel, surrounded by Asian pears and Honeycrisp apples. The finish lingers long and soft, like the wafting aromas of grandma’s warm apple pie.

The Bogle Chardonnay is the epitome of a hand-crafted wine. Harvested by hand and whole cluster pressed, half of the grapes go directly into stainless steel tanks to retain their crisp, fresh nature. The other half of the grapes are fermented in new American oak, where they age on the lees for 8 months, with monthly stirring. The finished wine is blended together just before bottling, resulting in a complex and delightful wine.

Fermented in 52% in New American oak, 48% in stainless steel and aged for 8 months in new American oak. Sur lie aged and hand stirred (batonnage) monthly.

Food Pairing: This versatile wine pairs well with grilled fish, roasted chicken, fresh green salads, and soft, mild cheeses.
