This is a magnificent wine. It is elegant and sturdy and lush and lovely. Somewhat fruity and floral but also complexified- as it were - by mineral and slate. We just loved drinking this after a two hour decant on a cold night in winter.

Candied and floral nose with currant and leather. Turns more savory in the mouth, with prominent smoky black tea and cedar over bright, lifted cherry and cassis flavors. With air, all these notes spread harmoniously from the nose through the finish. Distinctive, characterful wine and really delicious.

Bought from the library release a while back. Wax is a pain, cork was in great shape. Consumed from Grassl 1855s. Pours a deep, opaque purple with almost no sign of age. Dusty plum with a bit of baking spice on the finish. A cool, menthol note as well. Just on the ripe side of the ripeness spectrum -- opulent but not over the top -- with fine but present tannins. Improved over the course of the night, so no …

Bedrock makes a very nice and stylish wine, this one a field blend of zin, Petite Sirah, Carignane and a few others. Almost worth the excruciating challenge to extract the cork, requiring a blow torch to soften the wax. While plenty fruity it avoids the excess of alcohol and extraction that others have.The unusual blend of grapes lends interest and complexity. Probably at peak now but will hold and showing better now with additional age. Some of the tasters even …

In a great spot right now. Tastes as primarily zin but with a lot of complexity and unusual acidity. No need to rush to drink this.

Inky black red color with lifted cassis, boysenberry, black and red cherry, dust, pencil shavings, cedar tobacco, and white pepper aromas. on the palate. On the palate, it's medium bodied with cassis, black raspberry, ripe black cherry and red cherry, boysenberry, spice and graphite flavors Long finish14.5% abv "Walking the gnarled, old, dry-farmed and head-trained Negrette, Mondeuse, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Carignane, Chenin Blanc and others, one gets a feel for how vineyards in Napa once were. Planted in the 1930s, …

A great wine. At 8 years still rather fresh, but for sure well integrated and balanced. Pomegrade and red berries on the nose. Good acidity. Strong tannins in the background. After the fresh fruit comes deeper tones of tobacco, tar and pencil. A very unique wine!

Bold and powerful, more than usual for a zin. Got a little lost among the non-Cabernet Sauvignon California wines though.

Yum! Bottle was worth the wait. Lots of dark fruits, licorice, leather and pepper. 1hr decant helped but the second glass was even better.

14.5% abv. Dark ruby red, very aromatic. Ripe plum, baking spice, white pepper and mint. Superb balance, depth and length. Drinking great tonight, lots of enjoyable years ahead of this wine.

Notes from Day 2. Tobacco, cedar, graphite, cassis and black currant greet the nose. I would say it screams Oakville but someone else stole that line. Earthy black raspberry, spice, layered, great depth and balance. Chalky tart finish, more spice. On par with every other vintage I’ve tasted, meaning it’s freaking awesome. Still lots of room to evolve and soften but being able to pull the different nuances of a young wine is half the fun for me. My other …

Good old school red blend, well balanced. Fruit in check, drinking well, but plenty of life left.

Very good. Needed an hour to open up. Deep purple, dark fruits. Certainly good for another five years.

All I can say is wow. From the most famous terrior of Oakville, this high rent district wine is all lovely fruit and tannin but big big big. Definitely worth seeking out.
