Greetings!
If you are anything like us here at the winery, you are getting back into the post-holiday groove and have settled into 2014. The vines are getting their yearly pruning as we all await the start of spring, still (hopefully) a month+ away. We've seen some beautiful sunrises the last few days as wintry weather, and our trademark tule fog, finally finds its way to Clarksburg. Cheers, The Bogle Family & Staff |

Need a decadent dessert to enjoy with your Petite Sirah Port and your Valentine? Try this simple and delicious indulgence!
Ingredients:
2/3 cup bittersweet chocolate, chopped coarsely
1-3/4 cup cold heavy cream
2 T. sugar
3 large egg whites*
Raspberries or strawberries, for garnish
Whipped cream, for garnish
*I like to use pasteurized egg whites from the store since you do not cook the eggs in this recipe - just add a bit of lemon juice or cream of tartar to aid in the process.
Cooking instructions:
- Melt chocolate in a double boiler or using the microwave on low heat. Stir well and set aside.
- In a metal bowl placed in the freezer for 15 minutes, beat the cream with a mixer until soft peaks form. Set aside at room temperature.
- In a separate bowl, use a mixer to whip the egg whites to soft peaks. Add the sugar gradually and continue whipping until firm.
- Using a whisk, fold the chocolate into the egg whites carefully. When the whites are nearly completely incorporated, fold in the whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate for about an hour, or until set.
- Serve in glass bowls with a dollop of whipped cream, a few raspberries or strawberries set on top and of course, the Bogle Petite Sirah Port.
