Bedrock 2023 Zinfandel Monte Rosso   

2023 Bedrock Zinfandel Monte Rosso Vineyard, Moon Mountain, Sonoma

San Francisco Wine Panel Score 97 Points

Packed with sappy, piquant fruit, minerality and truly generous ripeness, this is potentially a great Zinfandel. The nose is a coiled medley of concentrated black raspberry, blackberry, grenadine, violet, licorice root, pink and black peppercorn and dark earthy spice scents. It is heavy in body, but tense and gripping  and beautifully focused on the palate, where dark red and black fruits seem almost muscular on the palate. The finish is very long and the wine as youthful seeming as it is flavorful. Expect another several years of growth and assume years of further pleasure after that.
