2014 Papera. Usually I love Papera, but the acidity seemed to stick out on this wine in a way that made it pair well with food but less pleasant on its own.

2014 Bedrock Wine Co. Zinfandel Old Vine - delicious! Always impressed by how Morgan "overdelivers" with this wine (considering price). Just enjoyable and easy to drink.

Re: What Bedrock wine are you drinking tonight?
Brian - I’ve had the ‘12 Lorenzo three times. I certainty found it more ready to drink than the ‘09 but thought it has tons of time left. I only have one left which I will most likely hold for another 4-5 years at a minimum.

Re: What Bedrock wine are you drinking tonight?
I hear ya buddy, I was doing the same and finally opened one.....but I'm definitley holding the rest of mine for a long, long time. Chris responded to my insta post and said they just did a Lorenzo's vertical and his notes mentioned drinking the 09 to 2050+Brian Tuite wrote: ↑September 12th, 2020, 7:18 amReally?

Re: What Bedrock wine are you drinking tonight?
I had a 13 last year that wasn't as backwards as the 09 but definitely felt like it needed more time....but I've generally thought that about most of Morgan's 13's.Brian S t o t t e r wrote: ↑September 12th, 2020, 6:25 amHad any other Lorenzo's recently?

As Steve mentioned, 2012 is prob the one to drink if you're opening one, but it wouldn't hurt to let em sit a while longer.

Saved a half glass on the counter and while it has definitley opened up and the red fruits are shining through.....its still noticeably tannic! I think Chris is spot on - drink through 2050+

Re: What Bedrock wine are you drinking tonight?
Moving shit around I recently found an aged cache of ~ 20 bottles sitting upright in a lay-down case. This was among them: Cayuse in the nose and maybe the initial taste but the color is darker and perhaps this finish is more chemical/halide rather than truly feral. A touch thinner than Cayuse too.
Seven years may be the BR sweet spot among the less-structured, entry-level bottles.

Has anyone opened a Wedding Cuve? I have one and I'd like to take it to a zin tasting, maybe after several hours of air. Would that be infanticide?

12 Alder Springs Syrah is hitting on all cylinders now. Baker’s chocolate galore, but different than Carlisle Papa’s. Everyone loved this wine. Dark & brooding but spicy.

'Drinking really well right now! Always one of my favorite early drinkers and this vintage is no different. Dusty dark fruits, rasberry, spice, and just the right amount of acidity. No rush but feel free to pop one while you wait for some of the other single Vineyard offerings to age further'

Re: What Bedrock wine are you drinking tonight?
2015 Monte Rosso Zin. After ~2 hours in the decanter, I think it’s in a really nice spot. Beautiful bramble red fruits and a touch of like spices and a hint of chocolate/mocha on the finish. Still a good amount of tannin, but I love me some grip.

Picked up a bottle of 2018 old vine zin--should I decant before drinking, or will this be better after a few years?

Will probably peak in a couple years, but can still drink now. If drinking now I'd just pour it in a glass and follow over a few hours.

Immensely enjoyed a 2016 North Coast Syrah last night. Just stunning. Peppery with a touch of sweetness. Bitter chocolate. The enveloping mouthfeel of a truffle. Not jammy or a fruit bomb at all. But it's the finish that got me. Goes on for days. A stunner. And at $20/bottle? Come on. That's crazy talk. Wish I had another bottle for tonight.

Sure I'm not alone when I say I'm SUPER pumped about that! Cant wait to see what they're going to do with grapes from that magical vineyard.
Stupendous.
As in stupidly great. Arguably the best young field blend that I have had from Bedrock. Popped it last night with a wonderful Cuban-style pot roast that my mom made, it slayed a mature Pomerol that I popped as well, had us negotiating for who gets what!

Re: What Bedrock wine are you drinking tonight?
Nice man! I have not opened one yet, but now I really, really want to. Honestly, with that kind of praise from you, I might swing by the offsite this week and grab one.

Bedrock is getting Old Hill Ranch fruit!
Sure I'm not alone when I say I'm SUPER pumped about that! Cant wait to see what they're going to do with grapes from that magical vineyard.
Stupendous.
As in stupidly great. Arguably the best young field blend that I have had from Bedrock. Popped it last night with a wonderful Cuban-style pot roast that my mom made, it slayed a mature Pomerol that I popped as well, had us negotiating for who gets what!

2015 Bedrock Heritage ... yes, I know it’s relatively young, but I have more ‘15s than ‘14s and 2 of these. The brambly (sp) old vines, spice, and acidity paired very well with a Holy Grail prime ribeye on the grill.
