About the winery · Bogle Family Vineyards ›

Phantom Wines is part of the Bogle family's wine collection and takes its name from the Scottish legend of the 'Bogle,' a spirit tied to the family's heritage. The Phantom red blend highlights Petite Sirah, the first grape the Bogle family planted in 1968, together with Zinfandel. The brand presents the wine as a reserve-quality, small-batch California red built around dark fruit, spice, oak richness and a mysterious label identity.
