Very fruit forward at opening, but given a little time the wine evened out and was spectacular.

Began rather nondescriptly, but as the evening unfolded it opened up beautifully It paired wonderfully with steak and chocolate. Still time left on this wine.

Perhaps a bit generous with the rating? But among two excellent Cabs, our whole group liked this wine a bit better. Settled tannins, bold fruit. Will continue to show well for several years

2020 Bedrock Wine Co. Heritage Wine Evangelho Vineyard

Contra Costa County Zinfandel Blend, Zinfandel more

Bedrock ships their wines a year too early. Expects the consumer to finish initial aging. This zin was finally ready to open after sitting in the cellar for 18 months. Worth waiting for.

I don’t know why Talty doesn’t get more respect. This is a nicely differentiated Zin with complex flavors. This bottle showed nice maturity. Talty has a wonderful way with Zin.

A very nice wine that gets better with time - more time after opening and likely more time in the bottle. I am glad this is. It the last bottle.

The perfect companion for a cold winter afternoon and evening with football. Warm and rich still performing well. Opened for a couple of hours and consumed over a couple more. It got better and better. Nice wine.
