✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Bedrock Wine Co.’s Cuv e Karatas is a brilliant homage to the classic, age-worthy dry white wines of Bordeaux’s Graves region, crafted with a uniquely Californian historical twist. This serious white blend is typically composed of S millon and Sauvignon Blanc, drawing from some of the oldest S millon vines in California, notably those planted in the late 19th century at the legendary Monte Rosso Vineyard. Winemaker Morgan Twain-Peterson MW utilizes traditional, low-intervention techniques, including barrel fermentation and aging in French oak and acacia barrels to build a wine of incredible texture, weight, and complexity. The S millon provides a waxy, rich, and structured core with notes of lanolin and stone fruit, while the Sauvignon Blanc injects vibrant acidity and bright citrus aromatics. The name Karatas serves as a proprietary nod to historic structure and stone, representing a white wine built to challenge the red-dominated landscape of Sonoma heritage blends.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Bedrock Wine Co. blev grundlagt i Sonoma, Californien, i 2007 af vinmageren Morgan Twain-Peterson MW med en dedikeret mission om at genoprette og bevare statens historiske vinmarker med gamle vinstokke. Med udgangspunkt i den legendariske Bedrock Vineyard i Sonoma Valley – som oprindeligt blev tilplantet i midten af det 19. århundrede – hylder Twain-Peterson og hans partner Chris Cottrell Californiens vinarv gennem en minimalistisk og terroir-drevet vinifikation. Vingården skaber vitale og stedtypiske vine på klassiske, historiske field blends såvel som traditionelle druesorter som Zinfandel, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon og Chardonnay. Bedrocks aftapninger er berømte for deres energi og autenticitet, og især den ikoniske Bedrock Heritage samt enkeltmarksvinene fra gamle vinstokke står i dag som uomgængelige pejlemærker for klassisk californisk vinkunst.
