The wines of Bedrock Wine Co. are not exorbitantly priced to begin with. The Sonoma winery’s entry-level bottling, Old Vine Zinfandel, usually sells just shy of $25.
But its Shebang label, which sells for $10 to $15 depending on the store, represents a truly jaw-dropping value for a well-made California wine.
