RP100 "From an 11-acre vineyard sitting near Bond’s winery and the Harlan estate, the 2012 Vecina is the perfect Napa version of a hypothetical blend of a La Mission Haut-Brion and Mouton-Rothschild. This is riveting Cabernet Sauvignon with great intensity, a killer fragrance of burning embers, charcoal, gravel, blackberry, cassis and earth. Fabulously intense and full-bodied, with majestic flavor intensity, a skyscraper-like mouthfeel, incredible purity and length, and supple tannins, this magnificent wine comes closest to the great Harlan Estate itself. Drink it over the next 35 years." RP for WA Oct 2015

This project was conceived by Bill Harlan and Bob Levy of Harlan Estate - a winery that quickly became one of California's cult producers along with the likes of Screaming Eagle. The duo worked with over 80 vineyards in the Napa Valley during their journey to create a wine that was 'Grand Cru' in quality. Finally settling on a selection of 5 of the finest Napa terroirs, Bond produces a collection of Cabernet Sauvignon wines that exhibit the diversity and remarkability of their geographic region.
