I have only ever had 1 bottle of Bedrock Zin in my life - a 2021 Old Vine Zin. On a whim, I paid $270 at auction for the following:
2013 Bedrock Zinfandel Carlisle Vineyard
2013 Bedrock Zinfandel Monte Rosso
2013 Bedrock Zinfandel Old Vine
2014 Bedrock Zinfandel Limerick Lane Vineyard
2015 Bedrock Zinfandel Carlisle Vineyard
*2015 Bedrock Zinfandel Esola Vineyard
2016 Bedrock Zinfandel Schmiedt Road
2 bottles 2016 Bedrock Zinfandel Sodini Vineyard
2017 Bedrock Zinfandel Esola Vineyard
2 bottles 2017 Bedrock Zinfandel Limerick Lane Vineyard
Do you think they are still drinking well and did I get a good deal?

Very good deal. They should all be fine. I might check in on the 2013 Old Vine just to check provenance.

Excellent choices! And absolutely, they should be drinking very well!
As David mentioned, id focus on the Old Vine. From there you should look at the Limerick Lane. I have not had very good luck with those and am no longer a buyer.
Congrats on the score!

The only thing that would concern me on any of those would be provenance. Otherwise nice snag.
Not getting the $110 next to the $25 Esola though.

Assuming the shipping cost was not astronomical, yeah, definitely a good price.
I would bet they are all drinking just fine.

You got a screaming deal.
Have you looked at the drinking window chart on the Bedrock website?

I would have bought that lot! Nice score. I think Berdock Zins generally age very well. Not all cuvées, but most do. Plus, 10 years is not that old. I’d pop the OV first.
All of this assumes proper storage, of course.

Agreed on the nice find and checking their website for windows. Having said that, those aren’t my favorite cuvées that the team makes, aside from Esola which I adore and I think will age for 15-20 easily, along with the Monte Rosso. Most of the rest should be drinking very well - they are not the long agers of the stable.
