Analysis
This wine, like most of the Bogle wines, wears the California appellation meaning that it is sourced from more than one appellation in the state. The Bogle Sauvignon Blanc is crafted from grapes grown in Monterey, Russian River Valley, and Clarksburg. It is fermented and rested in stainless steel to keep it fresh and pure. 88 points.
How to Enjoy
Serve chilled at happy hour or with any salad, fresh cheeses, and fresh fruit.
