Bedrock Wine Co. Evangelho Heritage Red Blend 2022 – California Zinfandel Field Blend

94 Points – Vinous & Wine Spectator

Experience the extraordinary concentration of Bedrock Wine Co.’s 2022 Evangelho Heritage Red, a bold California field blend of Zinfandel, Mataro, and Carignan. Crafted from drought-stressed vines yielding just 1.1 tons per acre, this wine delivers intense dark fruit, spice, and savory complexity—a true expression of Contra Costa County’s rugged terroir.

Tasting Notes & Vintage Character

  • Flavor Profile: Layers of blueberry, cassis, and cherry entwined with lavender, black pepper, and umami-rich notes from old-vine Mataro and Carignan.
  • Structure: Silky yet structured, with briary tannins and a vibrant acidity from coastal winds that cool the vineyard daily.
  • Vintage Challenge: The 2022 drought concentrated flavors into a “demi-glace” intensity, making this one of the most age-worthy Evangelho releases yet.

Critical Acclaim

  • Vinous praises its “unreal complexity and depth,” while Wine Spectator highlights its “dynamic, generous finish.”
  • 14.5% ABV – Balanced for cellaring or bold pairing with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or aged cheeses.
