Meritage is a special designation for Bordeaux-style blends made in the US. This particular blend stands out because it includes only three of the top five grape varieties used in Bordeaux blends. The term “Meritage” is derived from “Merit,” which reflects the quality of grapes, and “Heritage,” symbolizing the centuries-old tradition of wine blending. It pairs nicely with roasted meats, bold cheeses, beef stews, and chocolate desserts.

A true gem of southern Italy, Negroamaro has long been treasured in the sun-drenched vineyards of Puglia—particularly in the “heel” of the Italian boot. At Boeger, we introduced this distinctive varietal in 2012, inspired by our passion for Italian heritage grapes and their ability to thrive in our terroir. Planted alongside our other southern Italian cultivars, Negroamaro adds a vibrant and soulful voice to our collection. Equally delightful on its own or paired with a wide range of dishes, this wine brings a taste of southern Italy to every glass. 

Pinot Noir is a rare sight in the Foothills. These grapes come from our Pinot Grande vineyard, named after the neighboring "Pine-O-Grande" Wood Mill. The high elevation of this vineyard helps maintain a cool growing season for this delicate variety. It pairs well with Portabella mushroom burgers, duck, pizza, risotto, butternut squash, and salmon.

One of the crown jewels of Tuscany, Sangiovese continues to inspire us with every vintage. Grown in several small blocks, each less than an acre, strategically placed across our estate, this wine reflects both the soul of the varietal and the character of our diverse soils. Crafted as a single-varietal expression, it’s designed to be a graceful companion to any Italian dish. Lightly chilled, it becomes the ultimate summer red. We only wish we made more.
