2011 TOP 25 - Rank #10
It seems the wines from Morgan Twain-Peterson of Bedrock Wine Co. get better and better each time I have one. Coming from 122 year old vines in Sonoma Valley the 2010 Heirloom is no exception with its "Rhone-like" character. This is a beautiful wine with loads of fresh dark fruits, iron, peppered beef, mineral and spice. It is racy with muscular tannins and iron driven core. The transition to the long finish is seamless as it picks up momentum and gains complexities. Give this a bit more time to flesh out and this will be even better over the next decade.
