- Description

From the Bedrock Wine Co. website:
“With its oldest vines planted in 1896 on 25-35 degree slopes of decomposed shale, Nervo Ranch is one of the most distinct vineyards in Sonoma County. Its oldest blocks are a unique patchwork of red and white varieties once used for the now extinct Nervo Winery’s “California Burgundy.” Our Heritage Wine, which comes from these ancient vines, is made up of Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Negrette (once known as Pinot St. George), Alicante Bouschet, Carignan, Grenache, Grand Noir, Trousseau Noir, Valdigue, Abouriou (Early Burgundy), Semillon, Burger, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and more. It tends to be both perfumed and aromatic, reflecting the shale soils and climate that define the area south of Geyserville.”
