Bogle Old Vines 2005
|
Head-trained, dry farmed old vines are again the source for Bogle’s Old Vine Zinfandel. These gnarly old vines produce concentrated fruit of unsurpassed quality and intensity. This supple and mouth-filling vintage leads with juicy blueberry and ripe blackberry fruit. Black pepper and hints of chocolate notes integrate well with this soft, plush body. Subtle hints of spicy oak and pipe tobacco create structure, allowing this wine to stand up to a variety of fare. This is the perfect wine to pair with everything from rich sauces and unique dishes, to your favorite weeknight take-out.

Lean and a bit rustic, with simple dried cherry, cola and spice notes. Drink now. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 100,000 cases made.

Simple, semisweet and harsh, with a peppery sting, this Zin gains a point for its rich berry flavors. Sourced from Lodi, Amador and Fiddletown.

Plentiful ripe-berry fragrances well up from the glass here, and this very well-focused and nicely concentrated young Zinfandel, is similarly fruity in flavor while never being other than fully ripe. It maintains fine varietal definition even if it heats up just a tad at the finish, and its winning combination of inviting fruitiness and very good balance make it one of better values around. GOOD VALUE
