Boeger
Boeger produces wines from California's Sierra Foothills, a region defined by elevation, diurnal temperature swings, and a legacy of old-vine plantings. The winery's portfolio centers on Zinfandel and Bordeaux varietals, with a notable commitment to Carignan—a varietal rarely seen in California. The Heritage Blend Zinfandel, a field blend of the estate's signature grape, has earned recognition from Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate. The Meritage Red, built from Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon, reflects the winery's approach to structured, age-worthy reds. A standalone Carignan rounds out the core range, offering a window into the winery's exploration of less common varieties suited to the Sierra Foothills' terroir. The wines demonstrate the region's capacity for ripe, complex fruit balanced by the cooling influence of elevation.
