The 2021 Bedrock Heritage Wine is a great expression of this site. Black cherry, chocolate, spice, leather and tobacco are front and center. This dark, virile Zinfandel-based field blend packs a serious punch. There's plenty of detail and nuance behind all of that intensity. The 2021 is a big wine, but also less monolithic than some previous editions. There's a bit more whole cluster in the 2021 than in the past, so perhaps that explains the wine's nuance. The 2021 is one of the best wines I have ever tasted from the Bedrock vineyard, and I say that as someone who is not yet fully convinced of the potential here. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, January 2023)

Jan 31st, 2023The 2020 Pinot Noir Elliott is laced with wild dark cherry, sage, tobacco, menthol, crushed leaves, game and earthiness. There's terrific depth and tons of character here. I would give this a few years to soften, as there is some edginess. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, January 2023)
