Were there two Grenaches? Did I miss one. I only saw the ‘19 Bedrock vineyard.

FWIW, had the 2015 Drummond’s in February, and it’s freaking delicious now, can age no problem though.
In for another mixed case although I am waaaay over on cellar capacity!
There was also a whole cluster Old Vine Hill Grenache.
Haven’t bought in a while, but this was too tempting to pass on.
I was tempted by cab (still have two of the 2010 from the original release) and Grenache but stuck to 2 each of some Zinfandel blends: Esola, Dolinsek, Pagani, Beduccini, and the two Puccini.
Compagni Portis. Love this wine. Microscopic amounts made every year so jumped on the opportunity.
Got some others to pop and pour without feeling bad for opening up such young wine.

Same… really was trying to sit this one out, but there were too many tempting options.
I think that’s an undisclosed blend.
Yeah i just had to pull the offer back up because i couldn’t believe i missed an Old Hill Grenache offering, ha!

You’re right! Mixed that up somehow.

Side note, they reference the 2019 Alta Vista Late Harvest Gewurtz being the only one they have/will ever make…but i have a few bottles of the 2018 in the cellar! @Morgan_Twain-Peterson , no rush as it’s obviously a busy day for you…but any insights on the difference between the two?
Not MTP here but my interpretation of his comment was that this was the only one they made as a “straw wine” (Vin de Paille in old money), not that this was the only one they made at all.

Wonderful release. Was not looking for anymore wine, but got a 6 pack I am super excited about. Took a ton of discipline keeping it at that. Almost regret not getting more…but sticking to it!

How can you put a price tag on history in a glass?
Missed the Beduccini bottling too after ordering but good with what I grabbed.

I am in exactly the same situation. With all the WB love for Bedrock, I decided I was missing the boat so I recently placed my first order. Very grateful now for the opportunity to sample aged wine from the source. In for a mixed case of their library wines so I can compare young vs aged.

Famous last words…after re-visiting the entry level Syrah last night added 4 more bottles to the order. At least I kept it under a case!
Already got my wish-list as well! So awesome!
