From 100+ year old vines grown on windswept sandy soils in Contra Costa, surrounded by storage facilities and power lines (questionable sales point, but we swear it's a cool place). Bedrock’s 2023 Evangelho Vineyard Heritage bottling is a field blend of primarily Zinfandel and simply cannot be missed.

"The 2023 Evangelho Heritage Wine is fabulous. Intensely floral and lifted, the 2023 is so finessed. Bright red berry fruit, blood orange, mint, spice and lavender all grace the palate. It's another wine in this vintage that is especially vibrant and red-toned. This opens beautifully on the mid-palate and finish." - 95 points, Vinous

Varieties: "78% Zinfandel, 16% Mourvèdre with the balance being Carignan and small amounts of Alicante Bouschet, Grand Noir, Palomino, and even the fruits of a single, huge Clairette Blanche vine." - Bedrock Wine Co.

Preserving California’s Historic Vineyards

Founded in 2007 by Morgan Twain-Peterson MW, son of Ravenswood’s Joel Peterson, Bedrock Wine Company was built with a mission to preserve California’s old-vine vineyards. Many of these sites, dating back to the late 1800s, are cultural treasures of the wine world. Bedrock’s role in saving and rehabilitating these vineyards has been pivotal to California’s viticultural heritage.

Farming and Vineyard Sources

The winery works with dozens of historic sites across Sonoma, Napa, Contra Costa, and Lodi. Farming is organic whenever possible and always guided by low-input practices. Key vineyards include Bedrock Vineyard in Sonoma Valley, planted in 1854; Evangelho Vineyard in Contra Costa County, known for its sandy soils and own-rooted vines; and Pagani Ranch in Sonoma, planted in the 1890s.

Winemaking Philosophy

Morgan applies a minimal intervention approach designed to maximize vineyard expression. Fermentations use native yeasts, extraction is gentle, and maturation takes place in a mix of oak foudres, puncheons, and neutral barrels alongside stainless steel. Whites, including the Sauvignon Blanc Musqué, receive the same careful treatment, showing how texture, aromatic lift, and minerality can coexist.

Wine Style and Reputation

Bedrock’s red wines are vibrant, structured, and complex, balancing ripe California fruit with freshness and longevity. The whites are expressive and textured yet retain energy and precision. Consumers and critics alike value Bedrock for its authenticity, transparency, and devotion to preserving California’s old-vine vineyards.
