Bogle Phantom

Phantom ist der Spitzenwein der Familie Bogle, der nur in kleinen Mengen produziert wird. Zinfandel, Petite Sirah und ein winziger Anteil Mourvedre vereinen sich zu einem wuchtigen, dichten, opulenten, würzigen Powerwein. Die Trauben stammen von vorwiegend alten Rebstöcken und er wird ca. 30 Monate in amerikanischen Eichenfässern ausgebaut. Obwohl er jung schon beeindruckt, wird er durch etwas Lagerung profitieren. Try it!

The wait is over…Phantom has reappeared for the season! Bogle’s tantalizing apparition of rich berry and relentless spice returns to tease wine lovers. Full of flavor, concentration and intensity, this mysterious wine will haunt you well after the last sip is gone.

A spectre of rubies sparkles in the glass, awaiting with its first impression. Bright red cherry fruit and black pepper tempt you to take that sip, with hints of brawny juniper, rich blackberry and briary boysenberry in the background. Succulent in mouthfeel, the wine showcases its versatile grape varietals: Petite Sirah, Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon and Mourvedre. Aged for over 24 months in 1 and 2 year old American oak, tones of spicy vanilla and toasted coconut moderate the firm tannins and create a focused and intense finish. Enjoy this passionate and commanding red wine, yet another vintage impossible to ignore.
