Tasting Notes
Bogle Family Vineyards Chardonnay 2023 offers a refined expression of California winemaking rooted in six generations of family farming in the Sacramento River Delta. Cultivated in the cool climate of the Clarksburg AVA, this vintage benefits from a slower ripening process during a cooler growing season, resulting in a wine with exceptional balance and complexity.
On the nose, vibrant aromas of bright citrus, freshly plucked apples, and delicate white jasmine create an inviting bouquet. The palate reveals luscious stone fruit flavors seamlessly intertwined with rich vanilla and clove undertones, enhanced by warm spice and a subtle oak-derived toastiness. This interplay delivers a harmonious finish where toasty notes linger gracefully, showcasing the meticulous oak aging that complements the fruit without overpowering it.
Bogle’s commitment to sustainable farming and hands-on family involvement ensures consistent quality and honest value in every bottle. The 2023 Chardonnay exemplifies this philosophy, highlighting the unique terroir of the Clarksburg AVA—known for its cool, fog-influenced climate that preserves acidity and enhances aromatic intensity.
Perfectly suited for pairing with roasted poultry, creamy pastas, or simply enjoyed on its own, this Chardonnay represents a sophisticated choice for those seeking a premium California white wine with depth, elegance, and a true sense of place.

Scores
92 / 100"The aromas of freshly baked brioche are captivating, giving way to yellow plum, bruléed orange slices and notes of Elderflower honey on the nose. The flavours on the palate are sugared lemon rind, baked pear, Pink Lady apple with yeasty medium mousse and a mineral dry finish."
