Bedrock Wine Company, Sonoma County Bedrock Vineyard Heritage, 2020
This is the wine from Bedrock's home ranch, the site that gives the winery its name. Bedrock Vineyard in Sonoma Valley was first planted in 1854 by Civil War generals Sherman and Hooker, replanted in 1888 by Senator George Hearst after phylloxera, and it's those 130-plus-year-old vines that go into the Heritage. It's a field blend of 20-plus interplanted varieties, built around Zinfandel (about 65%) with a generous slug of old-vine Carignan and Mataro plus dribbles of Syrah, Petite Sirah, Tempranillo, and more. Morgan Twain-Peterson, who restored the ranch with his father Joel Peterson, works it with whole-cluster fermentation, native yeast, and minimal intervention. The flagship, and a complete expression of one of California's most storied vineyards.
