Bottle Notes, Zinfandel

2019 Bedrock Wine Co. Heritage Wine Dolinsek Ranch – Bottle Notes

Bedrock Wine Co. was founded by Morgan Twain-Peterson in 2007 and focuses on small production wines from many of California’ s most treasured and historic vineyards. The lineup of wines at Bedrock is expanding rapidly, but I think the best of the best are the ancient vineyard Zinfandels, Morgan is clearly passionate about.

Dolinsek Ranch is in the Russian River Valley and was planted a little over 100 years ago.

Purple in color. 14.9% ABV. Savory nose of black fruits, anise, earth and pepper. Full bodied with ample acidity. Dark, rich and plush. Blackberry, black cherry, plums and white pepper on the palate. The finish is long and spicy. Delicious now but the stuffing is certainly present if you want to cellar this for another 3-5 years.

My rating: 92 points.

The mailing list at Bedrock is highly recommended. Exceptional wines, fair prices and great customer service. Put your name on the waiting list.
