Critics Ratings

'From the valley floor, the 2010 St. Eden exhibits copious notes of creme de cassis, loamy, dusty soil undertones, forest floor, toasty oak and plenty of sweet tannin in its full-bodied, massive personality. Again, these wines are not meant for near-term gratification, so 5-6 years of cellaring is warranted. This is another 30-year wine from Bond.' - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 95/100 (Oct 2013)

'Deep, saturated ruby. Highly complex nose combines black raspberry, menthol, licorice, smoke and graphite. Broad, sweet and extremely fine-grained, with lovely sweetness to the plush flavors of currant, minerals and mocha. With its perfectly integrated acidity and firm, noble tannins, this should enjoy a long and glorious evolution in the bottle.' - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 95+/100 (May 2013)
