"The 2021 Teldeschi Ranch Heritage Wine is dark, pliant and explosive. Black cherry, plum, lavender, licorice and dried Mediterranean herbs infuse the Teldeschi with striking depth. Dark and sumptuous, with tremendous density and tons of acid-driven energy, the Teldeschi captures all the vibrancy of Dry Creek. The blend is Zinfandel, Carignan, Petite Sirah and Cinsault. This is a rare case at Bedrock where the blocks are picked separately and blended later, as opposed to a field blend where all the grapes are picked and vinified together. In a word: stunning. Once again, Morgan Twain-Peterson MW and Chris Cottrell presented a lineup that is equally impressive for its breadth and overall quality. Like many estates, Bedrock dealt with punishingly low yields in many sites. The wines, though, are superb, as I was able to see in tank during harvest and in this most recent tasting of bottled wines. 'In a year in which the vines carry very little crop, the concern is always a late season heat spike that cooks the fruit. Fortunately, we never got that,' Peterson explained. The 2021s offer a striking combination of fruit density and vibrancy. There are a number of highlights in this lineup, maybe too many."
