Bedrock Wine Co.

Evangelho Vineyard Heritage Zinfandel Blend 2022

The 2022 Evangelho Heritage blend by Bedrock is very light on its feet with a streak of bracing acidity — almost effervescence — along with light tannins. It’s a deep hazy purple in its youth with a nose of tart berry compote and leather. Seems like it will mature nicely. — 6 months ago

The Spur Livermore Valley Red Blend 2018

A lovely blend. Nice tannins, light black pepper, full bodied, nice finish — 3 years ago

Bonny Doon Vineyard

A Proper Claret Santa Cruz County Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

Feudi di San Gregorio

Serpico Irpinia Aglianico 2003

Finally, this wine got into the zone.
The savory austerity and rugged masculinity melted into the wine to reveal a lovely balanced (and maybe even elegant) beauty.

Castello di Ama

Gran Selezione San Lorenzo Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2017

Too young but still very nice with a 5h decant - suggest checking back in another 3-5 years. Tannins are very present, but the fruit and earth are very nice. Good acid too, especially for a hot vintage. — 6 months ago

Wente Vineyards

Morning Fog Livermore Valley Chardonnay 2016

This yellow-gold wine rings the “old-style Cali” bell in all the right ways. A nose of apricots, mangoes and apples is helped along with the smell of buttered popcorn. Oak treats the palate as well, draping over the tropical fruit like a sunshade. The acidity is zesty, yet the mouthfeel tends toward creaminess due to the wine sitting on the lees for five months. The oak is a definite part of the wine, but the effect is softened enough so that it's a pleasure, not a pain. — 5 years ago

Tenuta San Guido

Le Difese Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Sangiovese 2021

Respectable #supertuscan blend - earthy fruit, medium extract, but it was overshadowed by the second wine BDX we ordered after. — 4 months ago

Rhys Vineyards

Alpine Vineyard Chardonnay 2021

Young but the wine is so on point. By far the best American Chardonnay on the market. Crazy acidity, so much citrus, tropicals including passion fruit, just amazing 🤩 — 6 months ago

Sono Montenidoli

Tradizionale Vernaccia di San Gimignano 2021

Crisp, clean, light floral bouquet, medium acidity, slight fruity aftertaste, good in its own and bursts with flavor when paired with fresh crudo, fruit, and salads. — 9 months ago

Rhys Vineyards

San Mateo County Pinot Noir 2015

Another last of its kind wine as the San Mateo moved to Alesia label after this vintage. This young blend is really singing right now with bright red fruit and cedar spice and well balanced acidity. A candidate for short term aging, but the freshness of the fruit really shines now. — 5 years ago
