Any preview from MTP? Need to plan this purchase out

Bedrock

Going to an Italian restaurant near my parents later and have a 2012 Argiano I’d like to bring. Some CT notes suggest decanting 2-4 hours prior but wondering if anyone else has opened this recently.

Will this see U.S. distribution?

Just picked up a couple bottles of the Marguet Crayeres to see what the fuss is about.

Any of you guys have cellars with a good number of talk riesling bottles? How do those fit in the typical Bordeaux bottle racks? Is double racking even possible? At some point once I’ve bought a home I’ll want to design a cellar that can accommodate my rieslings.

When I visited Ketan last June he said he was thinking the 2013s would be released last fall. Well, here we are...

Saving mine for the long haul. I’m a little hesitant to open ‘16 rieslings now as some are starting to shut down.

Going through some more wines I purchase with Steve’s most recent cellar sale. Still in awe of how well his wines age. 1993 Edmunds St. John Zinfandel Amador County I think we opened this bottle at the perfect time. Lovely perfume of raspberries, cherry liquor, plum, chocolate, cinnamon, and espress...

As much as I love Val Vilaine, I’m still kicking myself for only buying one bottle of La Boloree last year.

Eric is a member on the board, maybe he can chime in?

Carmel King David Sacramental, of course

Love this riesling. Letting my 2016s and 2017s rest.

Trying hard to not grab one of my 2016s...

Bumping, more updates coming

Cantina Terlano Vorberg Riserva

I have a sole bottle of the 2016 Lieser Doctor GG, bought after we tasted at the estate. Has anyone tried both and can compare? Wish I could find it in the U.S.

2017 Weingut Battenfeld-Spanier Molsheim Riesling trocken Great value dry riesling. Nose is more complex than I was expecting, initially with ripe pear and green apple notes then evolving into grapefruit and a touch of citrus. There is a crisp and refreshing quality about the wine, not austere, with...

Agreed, had this two weeks ago and it was killer!

Just opened a 2017 Cantina Terlano Winkl. Delicious stuff.

I think Frank is going to need this:

Do you ship to MA? And when will these be shipped?

Just got a spring release announcement for Once & Future. Do MTP and Joel Peterson share similar styles in winemaking? Haven't had any Once & Future before.

Requested 3 Beducchini, got 1 as well.

I was only allocated 1 Sonoma cab with ability to wish list. I imagine many others were in a similar position.

Pinot Bianco/Weissburgunder, though I don’t always have it on hand.

Does Domaine have 24-hour swipe in?

If Bedrock isn't making zin from Monte Rosso fruit now, who still is?

2017 Bedrock Ode To Lulu Rose, after putting in my spring release order.

In for a mixed case and a half. Looking forward to trying Under The Mountain Heritage which I haven't had before. Anyone who has had the 2016 who can comment on what it's like in comparison to some of the other Bedrock heritage wines (if you can compare)? Also hoping for some wish list Beduccini. Th...

Opened the 2017 Pato last night. Two hour decant. Reminds me of the Weill O'Way Mixed Blacks but with more savory character and a more polished mouthfeel overall. Black fruits, black pepper, espresso, smoke, a little meat, purple flowers, and dried herbs.

Waiting for Steve to email me back. Would love to score some birth year wines if he’s offering library releases back to 1987!

I can’t purchase until the following week as I have yet to buy direct from Bedrock. Shouldn’t be an issue on trying to score some Rose, right?

Even if you can't get any rose from the release, it's not hard to find in wine shops.

2016 Bedrock Zinfandel Sodini Ranch

Recently found the 2013 Montecillo Cabernet on clearance for $75 at a store near me. Didn’t pull the trigger, but has anyone had this vintage and is this a reasonable price? It was $55 on release. I don’t plan on opening one for at least five more years. Wow, and this place had its original retail ...

BEDROCK '13 PAPERA.jpg

2013 Bedrock Wine Co. Heritage Wine Papera Ranch - best '13 Bedrock I have had BY FAR! Excellent and improved with each class. Think the 13's are finally in their drinking window (for me)!

Which other 2013s have you had so far?

Opened up my last 2012 Bedrock Monte Rosso. This is my favorite wine the MTP makes/made. It is really drinking fantastic and has plenty of years in front of it. If you are down to one, you can wait. I thought I read somewhere that Morgan was able to get Monte Rosso back again for future vintages, i...

I opened a 2017 Papera Heritage tonight. Drinks great after 4 hours in the decanter. Lovely balance of ripe, though not jammy, blue fruits, spice, and acidity.

Bump for updates

Finally got around to opening my winter shipment, planning to open a 2017 Pato, 2017 Papera, and 2016 Sodini in the next few days. Any decanting tips?

David, did you buy your older JJ Prum rieslings on release or have a place where you've been backfilling? Would love to try some from the 1990s and get more from the 2001 vintage...

These are gross generalizations, but... All are good the first 24 months or so post vintage. Then they shut down some. I then drink in the following windows (with plenty of exceptions due to a lack of willpower): Kabinett: 10 years from vintage until the end of time Spätlese: 15 years from vintage ...
