2009 Bedrock Cuvee Caritas White
This is the biggest, richest, white wine that Bedrock has
ever made. It is 53% Sauvignon Blanc from the stony
hillside of Kick Ranch, and 47% dry‐farmed, 110‐year‐old,
Semillon grown at 900’ on the reddest of red soils at Monte
Rosso Vineyard in Sonoma Valley. The wine was fermented
using native yeasts in 85% new French oak barrels coopered
specifically for the wine by Sylvain and the former cooper
for Smith Haut Lafitte in Pessac‐Leognan. The Sauvignon
component, which did not go through malolactic, adds dramatic
perfume notes of star anise, chamomile, peach blossom, and
liquid minerals. The Semillon, which was allowed to complete
ML, contributes richness, figs, and elements of uncured
tobacco. I feel it might be the finest white wine I have
made, and will easily last 10 years.
Winery Notes 250 cases made.
