2023 Bedrock Wine Co. Cabernet Sauvignon, Sonoma County California

The 2023 Bedrock Wine Co. Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the character of Sonoma County Cabernet with a focus on freshness, structure and vineyard expression. The wine is sourced primarily from Bedrock Vineyard and Lazy Dog Vineyard, with additional fruit from Monte Rosso and Montecillo. The 2023 growing season was particularly favorable for Cabernet, producing fruit with deep color and richness while preserving freshness and aromatic intensity.

The wine offers expressive aromas and flavors of black cherry, blackberry, cassis and blackcurrant, complemented by notes of gravel, lavender, cedar, mocha, licorice and spice. Full-bodied yet balanced by bright acidity, it has firm, fine-grained tannins and a savory, mineral-driven character that carries through the long finish.

The blend is approximately 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Malbec and 4% Cabernet Franc. It was fermented in open-top tanks using native yeasts and aged in 225- and 228-liter barrels, with approximately 10% new oak. The result is a polished and vibrant Sonoma County Cabernet that delivers impressive depth and complexity while maintaining the fresh, detailed style associated with Bedrock Wine Co.
