Jul 21st, 2024Aromas of citrus flowers, lemongrass and faint lighter fluid; lime, lemon, with juicy and saliva building acidity. I feel like the wood influence helped the acids from getting too crazy in it's youth. I can't wait to try the second bottle years from now. Fruit from the second oldest known Riesling vineyard in CA, planted in 1963. Granite and limestone soils...that are unmistakably present in the wine, in both the nose and mouth feel. Own rooted, cared and tended to by Pat Wirz. Morgan used indigenous yeasts and aged it partly in neutral french oak casks. 13.5% ABV.

Jun 20th, 2017Favorite vintage yet from @bedrockwineco ! Dry, beautiful varietal fruit and hinting petrol notes that will likely emerge more with time.

Jun 1st, 2017Great depth n texture. Just enough round fruit upfront to complement the long bright finish. #yumm

Apr 6th, 2017Best CA Riesling I can remember tasting, touch of petrol in the nose followed by luscious fruit and then a rush of minerals, finishes with a pithy bitterness that was delightful with our dim sum spread!

Apr 1st, 2018I had that last night with a "plethora of piñatas." Whoops, I meant pintxos. This fit their menu like a dreamboat.

Jun 11th, 2017Plenty of fruit on the nose with nectarine, peach, lychee, and some slight slate. On the palate a much more balanced experience with a mild finish.
