Fore Please!…Now Drinking 2019 Bedrock Wine Co. Monte Rosso Vineyard Zinfandel.
In celebration of Scottie Scheffler’s 2022 Masters victory- let’s pair the Bedrock wine notes with Mr. Scheffler’s golf game!
Morgan Twain-Peterson(MT-P) writes: “this wine comes from a phenomenal block planted in 1886 on the midslope of the vineyard “.
Just so, Mr. Scheffler, being just 25 years old exemplifies great maturity. Scottie also maintained his elevated game this entire Masters week to capture his first major.
MT-P: “Though this site has always excelled, it looks particularly dialed in”.
Likewise Mr. Scheffler has always excelled at his craft of tournament golf. Since dominating junior golf events, to keeping his game dialed in since turning pro on the PGA tour, and especially this week at Augusta National.
Job well done Mr. Twain-Peterson.
Congratulations, and job well done also Mr. Scheffler! Okay — 3 years ago

Merry Christmas from our family to yours! 🎄🥂
With brunch, we’re sipping a special bottle of bubbly from Champagne Hervieux-Dumez, a grower-producer located in Sacy, a Premier Cru Village in the Montagne de Reims region of Champagne.
We were fortunate to visit Hervieux-Dumez in the fall of 2021. We received a warm, welcoming tour of the property from Clément, who represents the fourth generation of this family business. We had the pleasure of tasting some incredible wines, including this one, which we brought home with us.
It's the ‘Cuvée des Rois de France’ – the ‘Cuvée of the Kings of France’ – named in recognition of Champagne’s history as the traditional site for the coronation of kings at the Basilica Notre-Dame in Reims. 👑 The village of Sacy played a special role in these events as a popular source of water.
This wine is a blend of Pinot Noir, Meunier, and Chardonnay, 50% of which came from reserve wines that aged a minimum of 60 months in the Hervieux-Dumez cellar. It is a medium lemon hue with a fine mousse and offers delicious notes of yellow apple, pear, white raspberry, lemon, blossom, wet stones, brioche, almond paste, and pie crust, with a lingering, elegant finish.
We are grateful for this beautiful experience that remains a beautiful memory. — a year ago
Medium deep ruby , garnet rim . Quite aromatic with spicy herbal cassis , tobacco , grafite and warm earth . Quite round on the palate with herbal cassis , blackcurrant and a touch of spice . Ok acidity and rounded tannin, not bad length. This is drinking well now and will continue over the next 5-10 years — 8 months ago
My father has a case of these 1983 BV in his father’s wine collection. Have sat undisturbed for a few decades since my grandfather passed. Opened this for Easter dinner if braised lamb shanks. Had some cork breakage but decanted and let it breathe… it was quite delicious! Looking forward to drinking the rest of his collection! — 3 years ago

Region: Saint-Estephe Grape Variety: Bordeaux Blend Red ABV: 13.5% . "Ruby red with violet reflections in colour, on the nose, aromas of plum and cassis with notes of spices. On the palate, dry, oaky, smokey, spicy, fruity, hint of tobacco, touch of leather and toast, delivers red fruits character, balanced, lengthy, soft, silky, layered, mature, earthy, persisted, rich, firm. It has a long finish." — 4 months ago
