WINEMAKER NOTES

Bogle’s 2007 Merlot is another great example of the underestimated wine that this varietal can be. Though subtle and silky around the edges, this wine has a body of concentration and substance. Bright summer cherries greet the nose and palate, while touches of tea and rich red fruit are mouth-filling and lingering. The finish, reinforced by smooth, assertive tannins, hints of toasty oak and spice.
