While the Bogle estate has since expanded to cover 14 different sites in the cooler areas of the Delta region near Sacramento, the boutique philosophy embraced from the outset still continues.Family remains vital toobrother Ryan and sister Jody have joined Warren in the running of the companyand that extends to the friendly cellar door operation, including a relaxed green space where visitors can kick back and enjoy one of the Bogles delicious wines. That might include the Bogle Viognier or Petite Sirah, wines produced exclusively for Enotria and the companys cellar door. Indeed, such is the Viogniers popularity that production has now been increased to meet eager demand.Tasting NoteFull-bodied on the entry, aromas of black plum jam and toasty oak set the stage for what is to come. Vibrant boysenberries and luscious fruit are framed by serious tannins, while wisps of leather and vanilla seduce just enough. A final touch of acidity finishes the wine with a precisely balanced mouthfeel. – Bogle Vineyards
