Bottle Notes, Zinfandel

2017 Bedrock Wine Co. Zinfandel Old Vine – Bottle Notes

Bedrock Wine Co. was founded by Morgan Twain-Peterson in 2007 and focuses on small production wines from many of California’ s most treasured and historic vineyards. The lineup of wines at Bedrock is expanding rapidly, but I think the best of the best are the ancient vineyard Zinfandels, Morgan is clearly passionate about.

From a number of appellations and vineyards including Evangelho, Bedrock, Nervo Ranch, Teldeschi Ranch, Sodini and Pato.

Bright crimson in color. 14.4% ABV. Pretty nose of red fruits, citrus, peach and earth. Medium body with perfect acidity. Charming, refreshing and so easy to drink. Well balanced. Cherry, strawberry, salmonberry and earth on the palate. Medium length on the finish. One of the better vintages of old vine in recent memory. So good right now. Best over the next several years.

My rating: 92 points.

The mailing list at Bedrock is highly recommended. Exceptional wines, fair prices and great customer service. Put your name on the waiting list.
