    Winemaker Notes

    Butterscotch and burnt sugar Crème Brûlée madness get all jammy with plum jelly, black currant, cassis and blackberry. Enjoy the rambunctious palate of tobacco and spice with great acidity and an up-in-your-business finish.

    Blend: 97% Barbera, 3% Cabernet Sauvignon

    In 1972, Greg Boeger bought a former Gold Rush vineyard and homestead site in El Dorado County and established the first modern-day winery in this ideal grape growing region. In the more than two decades since Boeger Winery was founded, we have been committed to only one standard: quality. We have built on our education and experience to produce exceptional wines. We are able to control the quality of our wines because we grow 90 percent of our grapes; we're small enough to allow attention to detail.

    California is a winemaking colossus; by itself it is the fourth largest producer in the world. Red wine accounts for 56% of the total by volume, and red grapes 63% of total acres planted. In addition, a number of California red wines are heralded as being among the most prestigious and sought-after wines in the world.

    While the state’s incredibly diverse geography, soils and microclimates allow for a wide array of styles, the key factor unifying California red wine is the abundance of sunshine and a long, consistent growing season. This leads to well-developed fruit marked both by impressive ripeness and balancing acidity.

    The state’s most famous red wine region, of course, is Napa Valley, where Cabernet Sauvignon reigns as king. But California boasts a wealth of other impressive appellations. The much larger and climatically varied Sonoma County also produces world class California Cabernet, along with wonderful examples of California Pinot Noir and Zinfandel.

    Fine versions of Cabernet and Zinfandel hail from Paso Robles as well, which is also gaining fame with Rhone varietals like Syrah and Grenache. As for Pinot Noir, terrific examples can be found from AVA’s such as Anderson Valley, Carneros, Santa Lucia Highlands and Sta. Rita Hills. Wineries in Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties are making wonderful Syrahs, and the Sierra Foothill appellations are proving to be an experimental hotbed, with Italian and Spanish varietals employed to great effect.

    This of course is a mere sketch. The subject of California red wine is as deep and broad as an ocean, and absolutely a joy to explore!
