2013 BOND Vecina

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

95 Points

Friday, October 6, 2023 - I’m gonna drink my bond 2013 box this week lol. I’m going in the order of my favorites from the past. Vecina number 2 slot. It was excellent. Unfortunate it’s paired agains the 100 Pt PluribusI drank last night. Deep opaque ruby core. Black tea, grilled herbs, plum and cassis on the nose. Similar flavors on the palate but coffee and red fruits join. The tannins weren’t as silky as the Pluribus and there was an alcoholic “bite” but the wine was fabulous I’m splitting hairs here. Long finish got it an extra point to land at 95. Highky recommneded

    BTW.....I am originally from St Louis (Twin Cities, MN now)...let me know if you ever make it out this way, would love to share a bottle with you....seems like we have pretty similar palates!
