Bond Cabernet Sauvignon St. Eden Napa Valley 2003

Reviews

96 -Wine Enthusiast -

Tasted alongside the Melbury, St. Eden is richer, more layered and complex. The jammy cherry and chocolate flavors here possess deeper notes of blue and purple fruits, with a brooding, mulchy depth that grounds the wine. The texture is gorgeous, with perfectly ripe, sweet tannins. Despite the wine's power, it has an airy, cloud-like quality, surely the mark of a great wine.

94 -Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -

The 2003 St. Eden comes from an 11-acre rocky knoll on the northern side of the Oakville Crossroad that consists of pure red soils. It is the most evolved and forward of these 2003 Bond wines. Lots of cedar, chocolate, roasted herb, lavender and spice box notes emerge from this complex Pauillac-like effort. Medium to full-bodied and fully mature, it is more evolved than its siblings, revealing sweet tannin as well as a spicy, earthy finish. Owners are advised to drink it over the next decade. The single vineyard wines represent Bill Harlan’s concept of offering single vineyard, micro-climate/terroir-based wines from distinctive sectors of Napa Valley.

St. Eden is Bond’s most forward and extroverted expression of Napa Cabernet, and the 2003 vintage delivers lush blackberry and plum with eloquent floral lift. The palate is rich yet polished, with fine tannins that support vibrant fruit and integrated oak spice. There’s a seductive textural allure here, making it approachable now yet built for medium-term cellaring.
