Overview:
The Bogle Family Vineyards 2019 Petite Sirah is a bold and intense expression of the varietal that holds special significance in the winery’s history. As the first red grape planted by founder Warren Bogle in 1968, Petite Sirah has become the family’s "heritage" varietal, a testament to the passion and dedication that has shaped the vineyard's legacy. This wine, aged for 12 months in American oak barrels, delivers a powerful flavour profile, reflecting the depth and complexity that Bogle is known for. With its rich concentration and unmistakable intensity, this Petite Sirah is an excellent example of the distinctive character that the varietal brings to the California wine scene.
Tasting Notes:
On the nose, the 2019 Petite Sirah opens with inviting aromas of ripe blueberries, fresh earth, and subtle hints of brown sugar and cocoa. These notes carry through on the palate, where the wine’s concentrated fruit and spice flavours shine. The wine’s firm structure and complex layering are enhanced by its 12-month aging in American oak, adding depth and smoothness. The mouthfeel is full-bodied and robust, with a lingering finish that highlights the wine's signature intensity. This Petite Sirah pairs beautifully with rich dishes like smoked lamb shoulder with rosemary, braised short ribs with blackberry barbecue sauce, or smoked gouda cheese, making it a perfect choice for those seeking a wine with both bold character and finesse.
