Khikhvi 2019

Fun wine, extended skin contact - looks like a Rose and tasted like one too: mix between tart red fruit & savory notes, some potpourri, fairly exotic. Palate was bit more austere, open canvas for variety of light fare. We had huge salad w/smoked salmon and it was fantastic. Balanced and dry finish, go find some Georgian wine! — 6 months ago

Bedrock Wine Co.

Vineyard Under the Mountain Heritage Santa Clara County Red Blend 2021

Holy smokes this is good! My expectations were modest due to my stereotyping its Santa Clara County provenance, but I stand corrected. This is apparently an old-vine blend featuring about 50% Zin and a mix of Carignane and Mataro (Mourvèdre) to round it out. The purity of the black and red berries on the nose is remarkable. A bit of crushed stony earth. In the mouth, there’s tremendous flavor concentration but with an athletic mouthfeel that balances nice acids and super-soft tannic support. Great length. Color me duly impressed. Shoulda got more. 14.5% alcohol thank you very much. — 4 months ago

@Tom Casagrande, I am rapidly becoming a huge fan of Bedrock’s wines the 2023s we have tasted (and more to taste at the next pickup party) really show how good the vintage was!!

Under the Wire

Sparkling Alder Springs Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018

It’s not just the name of the 2018 Under the Wire Alder Springs Sparkling Pinot Noir that is more than a mouthful. This is a beautiful, multi-layered sparkler with floral notes, hints of fragrant herbs and strawberry along with crisp acidity and a subtle mousse. It’s somewhere between a white and rosé, having taken on a copper hue from brief skin contact. The Alder Springs is a great food wine with room to develop. — 4 months ago

Estate Cuvée Schultze Family Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021

Light bodied but had some tannin hiding in the back. Wonder if they did some whole cluster fermentation. — 6 months ago
