✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Pagani Ranch is one of Sonoma Valley's most legendary and visually striking vineyards, with its oldest head-trained vines dating back to the late 1890s when they were planted by the Pagani family. Situated in Kenwood, this historic site features gravelly clay loam soils and a unique microclimate that experiences dramatic diurnal temperature swings. Bedrock Wine Co.'s Pagani Ranch Heritage is a traditional field blend that pays homage to California's early viticultural history. The blend is typically dominated by ancient-vine Zinfandel, but it is uniquely defined by a significant portion of Alicante Bouschet—a rare teinturier grape with red flesh that contributes deep color and structural intensity—alongside Petite Sirah and other minor heritage varieties. Crafted with minimal intervention and aged in French oak, the wine is celebrated for its striking balance of dark, voluptuous fruit, exotic spice notes, and a vibrant, refreshing acidity characteristic of the site.
🍾 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.
