✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Bedrock Wine Co.'s Papera Ranch Heritage Red is a liquid testament to Sonoma's rich viticultural history. Planted in 1934 by Celestino Papera, an Italian immigrant who saved his earnings from working in San Francisco's quarries, this historic vineyard lies in the cool-climate Russian River Valley. Surviving decades of agricultural shifts, the vineyard is planted on classic clay-loam soils that yield a remarkably bright, high-toned expression of old-vine heritage grapes. The blend is overwhelmingly dominated by ancient-vine Zinfandel, complemented by a small percentage of Carignan and other interplanted varieties. Bedrock utilizes minimal-intervention techniques, including native yeast fermentation and aging in mostly used French oak barrels, to allow the site's signature vibrant acidity, dark raspberry fruit, and exotic spice notes to shine through with elegance and structural definition.
🍾 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.
