Overview:
The Bogle Family Vineyards 2022 Phantom Chardonnay is a truly elevated expression of the classic, big, and buttery style that has made Bogle a beloved name among Chardonnay enthusiasts. A step up from the standard Bogle offering, the Phantom spends a luxurious 10 months maturing in 100% French oak, lending it an added layer of complexity and a silky, creamy texture. Hand stirred bi-weekly to enhance its mouthfeel, this Chardonnay is rich and bold, with every sip offering a decadent experience. The Bogle family, now in their sixth generation of winemaking, continues to produce wines that are as consistent as they are exceptional. With a history steeped in perseverance, Bogle has firmly established itself as a producer of premium wines that appeal to those who appreciate a full-bodied, oak-infused Chardonnay.
Tasting Notes:
The 2022 Phantom Chardonnay opens with an intense bouquet of rich, buttery aromas, complemented by enticing notes of ripe tropical fruits and subtle vanilla. On the palate, it delivers a beautifully creamy mouthfeel, where flavours of honeyed pear, citrus zest, and lightly toasted oak come together in a harmonious balance. The French oak influence is evident, enhancing the wine's complexity with a smooth texture and a long, rounded finish. Bold and full-bodied, yet elegantly structured, the Phantom Chardonnay is the ultimate indulgence for those who love their wines rich, textured, and packed with personality. It pairs wonderfully with rich dishes like lobster, creamy pasta, or roasted chicken, making it a versatile choice for any special occasion.
