I wish more Zinfandel could be made like this. While this is just a baby, it’s already delivering so much pleasure. Very primary with bright red fruits and spices. Good acid. Long finish. A few years in the cellar will do these wonders and there’s no reason to doubt the Bedrock bottle will have the ability to age gracefully for well over a decade. Such an exciting project from Joel Patterson and looking forward to trying more!!

2015. Young. Intense. Complex. Ready to age more than a few more years. Can't recall when I last had a Zinfandel with this much gravity, elegance, and oomph. If I had a dollar for every time I said wow tonight, I could buy another bottle of this. Joel Peterson and his son Morgan Twain-Peterson know their way around this grape. Wow.

Much more interesting and tasty than your typical Zinfandel. Starts with spices, moves to deeper red fruits, lingering finish. There's actually some tannin here and with its acidity could age nicely. Actually refreshing at this lower abv.

Lovely effort for Joel Peterson and his son Morgan's new project. Vibrant red fruits evolve over a plush, rich palate. Should only get better with more time in the bottle.

I'm generally not a huge zinfandel fan but this one ticks all the right boxes. I get mostly blue fruits, the French oak is nice and subtle, some earthiness and red meat smells as well. On the palate it has that odd zin character of medium plus acid and medium plus tannins but 5 years has given them enough time to harmonize.
