Product Notes

Bogle Vineyards Bourbon Barrel Aged Petite Sirah is a bold and complex red wine with deep aromas and flavors of blackberry, vanilla, and spice. It is aged in American oak barrels that were previously used to age bourbon, adding depth and complexity to the wine. The warm and smooth finish is a result of its aging process and highlights the rich flavors of this full-bodied wine. This wine pairs well with hearty meals such as a steak or a stew. With a long history of producing award-winning wines, Bogle Vineyards continues to impress with their unique and flavorful offerings like this Bourbon Barrel Aged Petite Sirah.

Tasting Notes

Opening with sweet cedar and black plum, the bourbon influence is noticeable immediately. Burnt sugar and caramelized fruit coat the palate, while pipe tobacco and smoky char hint at the barrel's first years. The Petite Sirah unfurls its dark, opulent berry fruit, lingering lazily over the whispers of whiskey, bringing together the best of the wine and the barrel.

About the Winery

Bogle Vineyards

Located in the Clarksburg region of California, the Bogle Vineyards is a family-owned wine label that is being run by the 6th generation now. The seeds for this establishment were sown by Captain AJ Bogle in the 1870s. In the year 1968, the next generation Bogle family members planted close to 90 hectares of vines in their home ranch and continued to grow grapes for other wineries. It was only in 1978 that they set up their own wine label. The family’s own winery, set up in 1979, stands magnificently even today.

As per the California Appellation Program, the Bogle Winery not only uses grapes grown in 1800 acres of its own estate, but also sources grapes grown from other neighbouring wineries. The areas that form part of this program and the varietals grown in those areas are:

  • Clarksburg – known for growing Merlot, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sarah
  • Mendocino – known for Petite Sarah, Pinot Noir and Zinfandel
  • Russian River Valley – known for Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc
  • Sonoma – known for Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Oakley – known for Old Vine Zinfandel and Old Vine Zinfandel
  • Lodi – known for Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Old Vine Zinfandel
  • El Dorado County – known for Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot
  • Amador County – known for Old Vine Zinfandel

The winemaking process followed in the Bogle Winery deserves a special mention. While whites such as Chardonnay are fermented using new oak barrels with lees being hand-stirred just once a month, the reds are aged individually in traditional oaks. This is quite a rare practice for a winery of this size. 

The winemaking team works with the sole objective of preserving the character of the fruits right from the vineyard to the bottle. Therefore, extreme care is provided to retain the quality of the terroir where the grapes are cultivated.
