Bogle Family Vineyards
Essential Old Vine California Zinfandel Blend
Let it breath a little bit. It starts out dry and kind or boring, but after 10 minutes it opened up and sweetened up a bit with a little fruit. It could easily be an everyday drinker.

Better than I expected! Old vine zin, cab sauv, Syrah and petite sirah! Medium finish, beautiful nose, medium minus tannin. Glad I had it!

26 people found it helpfulJun 9th, 2014I'm not a massive zin fan but this old vine zin red blend makes me rethink my life choices. It's great on the nose, and has a unique oakyness. On the lips the juice unravels to display a slightly dry berryness with heavy cherry and blackberry notes. It lingers for a moment with a light coco flavor and goes dry at the very end.
Bravo.

Dry wine, oakey flavor with a hint of cherry at the finish.
