The Winery: Bogle Vineyards
The Wine: 2008 Petite Sirah
The Price: $9.99 at Safeway
Bogle is a California winery, located in the Sacramento delta. The grapes used in this wine are from Clarksburg and Lodi.
The wine bottle was stopped with a natural cork and decanted an hour before tasting. The wine is dark purple in color and has aromas of blueberry, plum and toast.
This is a fairly tannin-intense wine, with flavors of cranberry, blackberry, plum, vanilla and tobacco. The wine is well balanced and has plenty of nicely developed flavors. If you're a fan of Petite Sirah, this is definitely one wine that you should check out for yourself.
