Bedrock Wine Co.
Sherman's Gold Amador County Zinfandel
This is anything but your typical jammy, ripe, high alcohol California Zinfandel. If tasting blind one could be forgiven for thinking this is a rich, ripe Tempranillo. Ruby red in the glass, but light intensity for a Zin. Medium intensity on the nose with blackberry, blueberry, strawberry, a hint of bramble and sweet tart candy. Dry on the palate with plenty of mouthwatering acidity. Strawberry, blueberry with a hint of bittersweet chocolate and vanilla. Rich yet crisp and clean. Long finish. This is not your dad's Zinfandel.

Oct 15th, 2016Cool wine, but hard to peg as a Zin. So much warm, ripe fruit character without jamminess, extraction or elevated alcohol. Really curious what this looks like in a couple years. Another winner from @Morgan Twain-Peterson .
