Bogle Essential Red

"Deep garnet with concentrated dark fruit, blueberry, vanilla, and cherry on the nose. On the palate, well balanced with cherry, cranberry, and marzipan flavors, complemented by a lingering, toasty vanilla finish." —winemaker

"It presents great aromatic intensity with fresh fruit such as plums and blackberries. Elegance and freshness characterize this wine with an elegant, harmonious and gastronomic profile. A great choice for a daily wine." —winemaker

Wine Anthology Team Review-I have always told my customers that the best "dollar for quality" ratio can usually be found in Portugal and this particular bottle exemplifies this perfectly. From the region of Alentejano, these grapes were stored and vinified at low temperatures in order to preserve all the intense aromas and flavors found here. An absolute steal for this money. A must try!!

"For years, Bogle winemakers have sought out vines ranging in age from 60 to 80 years old for the Old Vine Zinfandel. These gnarly head-trained and dry farmed pioneers produce low yields of small, concentrated clusters of fruit, producing incredibly intense and flavorful wines. This Zinfandel has notes of raspberries, peppercorns, juniper, dried herbs and vanilla." —winemaker

"Carefully cultivated, first in the vineyards and later in the cellar, this vintage is rich with a mouth-coating texture and flavors of warm pie crust, plum, and blueberries, culminating in a melted tannin finish. Aromas also present notes of cranberry and blueberry compote, roasted nuts, and dark chocolate. A delicious Pinot Noir for any occasion." —winemaker
