Vineyard Under the Mountain Heritage Santa Clara County Red Blend 2021

Holy smokes this is good! My expectations were modest due to my stereotyping its Santa Clara County provenance, but I stand corrected. This is apparently an old-vine blend featuring about 50% Zin and a mix of Carignane and Mataro (Mourvèdre) to round it out. The purity of the black and red berries on the nose is remarkable. A bit of crushed stony earth. In the mouth, there’s tremendous flavor concentration but with an athletic mouthfeel that balances nice acids and super-soft tannic support. Great length. Color me duly impressed. Shoulda got more. 14.5% alcohol thank you very much. — 8 months ago

@Tom Casagrande, I am rapidly becoming a huge fan of Bedrock’s wines the 2023s we have tasted (and more to taste at the next pickup party) really show how good the vintage was!!

Tondre's Grapefield Pinot Noir 2015

Big cherry nose. More cherry on the palate with tart raspberry, pomegranate, and oak. Some tertiary fruit notes at this stage for this 2015, so drink now. Medium alcohol, medium body, medium minus tannins, high acid, medium plus finish. — 9 months ago
