"From a fabulous head-pruned, dry-farmed vineyard on Limerick Lane, the 2012 Zinfandel Sodini is another 300-case cuvee that was cropped at 1.25 tons of fruit per acre, was aged in 30% new French oak, and came in at 14.8% alcohol. Gorgeous aromas of blackberries, black cherries, pepper and spice box are followed by a wine with a rich, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel. It can be enjoyed over the next 4-5 years.

Morgan Twain Peterson, the son of Ravenswood's Joel Peterson, has hit the wine scene with a bang, producing vibrant, personality-filled, delicious wines from extremely old vines and, in some cases, virtually unknown grapes, such as Aubun, Teredalgo, Trousseau Noir, Le Noir, Mission, Trousseau Gris, Grand Noir and Abouriou, as well as Zinfandel, Syrah, Petite Sirah, Grenache, Carignan, Alicante Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Tempranillo. Many of these sites are heritage terroirs from the ancient past which, until Peterson's arrival, were largely ignored or were co-mingled into some innocuous industrial blend. Bedrock's portfolio is filled with exciting wines. The 2012s reviewed herein will all be bottled and released by Fall, 2014."

This Zin shows personality and focus, with briary raspberry and red clay aromas leading to zesty, well-balanced cherry, toasted sage and white pepper flavors, lingering toward ripe, minerally tannins. Drink now through 2021. 300 cases made. –TF
