2006 Bond Terroir Set Of Four. St Eden, Vecina, Quella, Pluribus

Pluribus

"The 2006 Pluribus, like all of these Cabernet Sauvignons, is youthful, with an opaque purple color and a big, sweet nose of blueberry liqueur intermixed with spring flowers and wet rocks. Full-bodied, powerful, and backward, with sweet tannin but formidable structure, this wine needs to be cellared for 4-5 years and drunk over the following 25 years." 96 Robert M. Parker Jr,

Quella

"The 2006 Quella is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, revealing chocolaty espresso notes, medium to full body, a slightly more streamlined style than the other wines, with a Margaux-like finesse and elegance. This is an attractive, savory, but reserved wine revealing plenty of sweet tannin." 96 Robert M. Parker Jr,

St. Eden

"Although outstanding, the 2006 St. Eden is less impressive than its 2005 counterpart. A deep ruby/purple hue is accompanied by plenty of crème de cassis, leafy, roasted herb, loamy soil and barrique notes as well as moderately high tannins." 94 Robert M. Parker Jr,

Vecina

"The 2006 Vecina has turned out even better than I expected last year. Graphite/lead pencil notes intermixed with hints of burning embers and charcoal, an opaque purple color, and sweet blackberry and roasted espresso notes are all present in this wine, which is masculine, muscular, tannic but incredibly well-endowed and a potential candidate for 30 years of aging. This wine needs 4-5 years of cellaring and should last three decades." 95+ Robert M. Parker Jr,
