Bedrock Wine Company - The Bedrock Heritage Red 2011 (750ml) KarnatakaCritical Acclaim 95 points Wine Spectator A knockout wine that captures a genuine sense of place and vintage. Rose petal, wild berry and Asian spice aromas open to layered, distinctive flavors of huckleberry pie, licorice and spicy mineral. The tannins are big but ripe, and there's plenty of lively acidity behind it all to keep this rolling. A blend of Zinfandel, Carignane and 21 other field blended varieties. *Ranked #14, Top 100 Wines of 2013,
