Description

Named for the serpentine rock which dominates this piece of ground, these are some of the best value Sonoma and Alexander Valley wines we have found and bought into the UK. Owned by Kenny Kahn for the last thirty-five years, they have maintained the estate's Italianate feel while making the superb wines international in style and temperament. 

2019’s growing season started later than usual for Blue Rock. A cool spring and growing season allowed a longer hang time. The wine has a pristine dark red and deep purple tint. The aromas celebrate the dark side of Cabernet as well, featuring ripe black plum, black currant and black cherry heightened by an intriguing note of graphite and subtle touches of black pepper and vanilla. All these elements come to a beautiful crescendo on the palate in perfect harmony and balance, with fine tannins, beautiful acidity and a dash of warm baking spices on the long and satisfying finish.
