Drew's Tasting Note

Remarkably rich aromas of ripe black cherries, cassis and vanilla, with hints of wild herbs and cedar. These scents also translate to the palate, with concentrated, juicy fruit and smooth tannins. Well-balanced. This wine is easily enjoyable now, or even more so over the next few years.

The Winery

The Bogle family have been farming in California's Sacramento Delta for six generations, though it was Warren Vernon Bogle who planted the area's first wine grapes in Clarksburg in 1968, laying the ground for what is now a third-generation winery. They are a Certified California Sustainable Winery that employs eco-friendly practices and supports local communities through their Bogle Gives Back initiative.

Juggernaut began when Bogle's winemakers observed that Cabernet Sauvignon grown in hillside vineyards showed richer colour, more aromatics, and greater intensity. Rocky soils, limited water and the angle and altitude of the slopes all stress the vines, producing low yields of deeply concentrated fruit. Aged in new French oak, the result is a wine with extraordinary density and texture, while maintaining Bogle’s signature easy-drinking style.
