2013 Bond Estates Vecina Red, Napa Valley, USA (750ml) Paso Robles Persistent finishTASTING NOTES: The perfect 2013 Vecina offers up notes of pen ink, scorched earth, espresso, blackcurrant liqueur and blackberries. It is a fabulously great wine, with supple, well integrated tannin, decent acidity, and a skyscraper like mouthfeel, with extraordinary purity and richness. This is an amazing wine to drink over the next 50 years, although I would probably suggest cellaring for five or more at present. Robert Parker, 100 pts
