Bogle Chardonnay

Winemaker’s Notes.
Chardonnay grapes grown in Clarksburg are known for their characteristic apple and pear aromas. Bogle winemakers have captured these refreshing and ripe notes will allowing them to develop and intensify through stainless steel fermentation. Additional grapes are vinted using the techniques of barrel fermentation, sur-lies aging, and partial malolactic fermentation, which creates an equal counterpart to the fresh fruit with tones of spicy vanilla and nutmeg. The creamy mouthfeel adds just the final touch on the finish, reminiscent of an apple and pear galette. Enjoy this wine with just about anything.

Tasting Notes.
This wine is light straw color. On the nose I picked up primarily apple notes, with none of the pear that is apparently common in Clarksburg chardonnay grapes. In the mouth the wine started out crisp, showing nice, refreshing apple flavors. On the back end of the wine it rounded out, showing some creaminess and vanilla flavors that I enjoyed. Food pairing with shrimp salad.
