Bond
St. Eden Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

First Bond i've tried. Liked this a lot, but need a bigger sample size before I can contrast it with Harlan.

Extraordinary. Jammy, wonderful mouth feel. The 2004 has aged remarkably well and is better now than previously tasted. Awesome.

Apr 1st, 2018Love Bond, one of the greats. The St Eden had a little bitterness initially, but opened up well after an hour. I’m partial to Melbury but can’t complain here, splitting hairs on a great producer.

Opened 4 hours prior to drinking. Dark color, and black fruit aromas and flavors of berries and plums, with some chocolate. Tannins are starting to lie down. Enjoyable, but a bit too ripe and primary for me.

Complex amazing wine. Full flavor with luscious tannins. Long in the palate. Continue to cellar the wine for another 10 to 15 years.
