Bedrock Wine Co.
The Bedrock Heritage Sonoma Valley Red Blend
Sonoma Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
This is really as great a Californian wine as one can muster. It is rich without being decadent, redolent with sweet fruit without being heavy or glazed as so many wines are, complex without being overextracted, and sun-kissed without being alcoholic or pruney. With 20 varietals in this field blend, and in the flatlands below Monte Rosso and Moon Mountain, maybe calling this terroir-driven is a stretch. It is more history-driven, and a testament to the duo who have put the effort into preserving it: @Chris Cottrell and @Morgan Twain-Peterson

#singular #structure #balance #place More California winemakers should embrace field blends. Though, I agree w @JohnQ Boxler that this is a bit too rich for me.
