What Bedrock wine are you drinking tonight?

I obviously don’t know the store/how poor the conditions are…but unless it’s sitting in a shop with no air conditioning and direct sunlight blasting it all day long…i bet it will be fine (it’s not that old of a bottle) :cheers:

Ha not that old for you! But actually it is the perfect age for me. The store is a typical big retail store but they had at least 20 of these a couple of years ago and the ones I bought were all good. Shocked they still have 9 left. I think next time I am near the store (it is by a reservation where I walk my dogs) I will try one. Didn’t take much convincing!

No doubt it has tons of life left, but I don’t see how it can be better than it is now. Will a couple of years be a problem? I doubt it.

Awesome, thanks David! I think I’ll look to drink mine soon then. Thanks for the note/feedback!

After taking my first delivery of Bedrock wines this past October, I’ve been trying to keep my hands off them but this one was staring at me asking why wait? Well, this is fresh & lively, with floral and spice on the nose and good acidity, fruit, and nice minerality on the palate. It’s a good drink and I like it. That said, I’m sensing this evolves and becomes an even more interesting wine with some time on it.

They do!. I’ve had Compagni Portis with 10+ years on them and they become very complex.

Opened a 21’ Bedrock Heritage, this is one of the better Zinfandel blends I’ve ever had. Kudos to @Morgan_Twain-Peterson.

Brief thoughts from pickup day… 2024 reds were showing well, generally bright and juicy, with Papera open for business, Teldeschi more dense and serious, needing some time, and Sky the star of the lineup, aromatically gorgeous with a palate to match, wild berry fruit, flower and herb complexity in spades. The Montecillo Cab is classically styled, only middle weight and quite pretty. Chris had a 2021 Evangelho Heritage open and it was in the zone, with great fruit, balance and well-integrated tannin.

The whites were stellar as always, including the only domestic Sauv Blanc we buy. Alta Vista Gewurz is my favorite example of that variety, with a gorgeous floral and tropical fruit nose and then a surprisingly bright, crisp and high acid attack and clean finish. High on my list of vineyards I want to visit.

Had 2022 Bedrock Heritage last night and it was super enjoyable. You could probably age it a few more years, but no need to wait in my opinion.

How was it?

I had the Wedding Wine last Saturday night. At my wedding! :smiley:

It was really nice, even out of hotel wine glasses.

Back story - I lost my wife of 28 years to cancer 5 years ago, but was lucky enough to find love twice. I knew once things got serious with her that I’d be drinking MTP’s Weding Wine at my wedding.

2010 Bedrock Heirloom.

Big fan of this vintage. Dark fruits, baking spice, just the right amount of acidity, and a hint of orange/citrus on the long finish. Probably drinking at or close to peak right now but I feel like it should hold at this level for quite a while.

2014 Bedrock Heritage last night. Tasted on opening, primary, tannic, and even a little bit boozy. Double decanted and then enjoyed at the restaurant beginning 30 minutes later, it brightened up and spread its wings a bit over time. Very enjoyable, but no rush. My last bottle but if I had more I’d put my next one down for 3-5 years hence.
