Detail
Though the Bogle family has been farming in the Clarksburg region for six generations, their involvement in the wine business spans back fifty years. Bogle winery are proud to be honored with the 2018 Green Medal Leader Award, which recognizes the vineyard that best demonstrates environmentally sound, socially equitable and economically viable sustainability practices. The deep dark color of this wine creates an expectation of weight and purpose, however the Essential Reds first impressions are subtle and nuanced. Faint notes of sweet garden mint and eucalyptus tantalize the senses, while hinting at the complexity yet to come. Upon the first sip, the rich, juicy mouthfeel takes over, expressive with flavors of blueberry and blackberry. After aging in American oak for twelve months, the wine finishes with round, plush and succulent flavors of baked cobbler. Pair with juicy barbecue burgers, Pt. Reyes blue cheese, or flourless dark chocolate cake. Vegan friendly!
