Note di degustazione
You would think that Morgan Peterson would be content with his whites and Heritage wines, but this young professional has an extraordinary touch with Syrah, and it’s there that perhaps some of his greatest winemaking done today is centered. The 2014 Syrah Hudson T ‘n’ S comes from the famous vineyard in Carneros. It was John Kongsgaard who first put me on to some of the great Syrah that Lee Hudson had planted. Fifty percent whole clusters were used in this wine, which was aged in a combination of smaller barriques and larger puncheons. This is Côte Rôtie on steroids, with notes of bacon fat, black olive tapenade, violets, marmalade, lychee and loads of black raspberry and black cherry fruit. It is a heady, fleshy, super-complex wine that is so good now, I can’t believe it is actually going to improve much more. Drink it over the next 5-7 years.

Bedrock's Syrah Hudson Vineyard TnS offers a tremendous expression of this famous Carneros site. Deep, dense and powerful, the 2014 exudes virile intensity and pure power. Game, earthiness, tobacco, smoke and wild flowers wrap around a towering core of rich, dense fruit. This imposing Syrah is going to require at least a few years in bottle, but it is superb, even at this early stage.
