The 2022 Bogle Family Vineyards Pinot Noir is a smooth and fruit-forward Pinot Noir from California, crafted in an approachable style that highlights the variety's vibrant fruit and soft texture. The 2022 vintage opens with aromas of ripe cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry, layered with subtle notes of violet, vanilla, gentle spice and a touch of earthy complexity. Carefully balanced oak adds depth without overshadowing the bright fruit character.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins, lively acidity and a supple, well-rounded texture. Flavours of red cherry, cranberry and ripe plum are complemented by hints of baking spice, toasted oak and forest floor, leading to a smooth, lingering finish. The wine offers an appealing balance of freshness and richness, making it enjoyable from its release while retaining enough structure for short-term cellaring.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent everyday Pinot Noir for customers who appreciate bright red fruit, gentle spice and an elegant, easy-drinking style. It pairs beautifully with roast chicken, grilled salmon, duck breast, mushroom risotto or pork tenderloin. Best enjoyed over the next 3–6 years, served slightly cool to showcase its vibrant fruit and silky texture.
