2014 Bond, Quella, Napa Valley 1x750ml

Vinous 95

The 2014 Quella is in a gorgeous place right now, at its first plateau of maturity. Blood orange, cedar, sweet pipe tobacco, leather and spice box lend notable aromatic presence. I expect the 2014 will continue to drink well for the next handful of years, give or take. [Antonio Galloni, 01/01/2025]

Anticipated maturity: 2024-2029

Robert Parker 96

"Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2014 Quella is scented of blackberry preserves, fruitcake and crushed rocks with hints of cigar box, dried Provence herbs and Indian spices. Medium to full-bodied, it has a firm backbone of grainy tannins and great freshness lifting the black fruit and earth layers, finishing on a lingering mineral note."

Anticipated maturity: 2018-2036
