Sunday, September 17, 2023 - Dinner was smoked brisket with a big group so wanted to have a fun wine lineup. Pulled the 2020 OHR bottlings from Bedrock, Bucklin and Carlisle. All exceptional wines with interesting distinctions.
Bucklin Ancient was the most immediately open of the bunch and wowed with really appealing fruit. Carlisle’s (debut) version was remarkably silky and long, with stunning texture and (at this point) probably tne most tamed tannin. Bedrock’s was the most powerful and structured of the three, with very slightly darker profile.
The group was about evenly split between the three but I’ll give Bedrock the edge. All three of these represent crazy value.
