2019 Bond, Pluribus, Napa Valley 1x750ml

Vinous 98

The 2019 Pluribus is a wine of sublime elegance. Dark blue/purplish fruit, gravel, incense, crushed rocks and lavender lend notable complexity to a mountain Cabernet endowed with tons of class and pedigree. Understated and elegant, with bright acids and beams of supporting tannin, the 2019 Pluribus is a knock-out. [Antonio Galloni, 02/16/2023]

Robert Parker 97

The 2019 Pluribus originates from a site 1,000 feet above sea level on Spring Mountain. East-facing and planted in 1998 on Aiken clay loam, it’s wonderfully sappy and herbal on the nose but balances those notes with ripe cherries. It’s medium to full-bodied, not as rich or lush as some of the other Bond wines, but silky, suave and elegant, with a long, lingering finish laced with dried herbs and softly dusty tannins.
