2022 Bedrock Wine Co. Ode to Lulu Rose | California 750ml

It is amazing to think this is our 15th year making this wine. Never did I think, when I whole-cluster pressed a couple of tons of Bedrock Mourvedre back in 2008, that it would become one of the most popular wines we make. One thing I did know then still holds true, though: we, as a winery crew, drink more of this than any other wine we make. Over the last decade and a half, we have learned a lot about making this wine and the intricacies of making great rose - finding the balance between mouthwatering freshness and fruit weight, of finding that beautiful drop of grapefruit, stone fruit, and tarragon-like perfume that Mourvedre can provide, while also maintaining its lightness of color and being. We are extremely proud of the 2022. As it has been for the last several vintages, it is based around old-vine Mourvedre grown in the sands of Contra Costa County and supplemented with Grenache and a bit of Syrah from other nice sites in Sonoma and El Dorado County.
