Producer Information
The project was conceived by Bill Harlan and Bob Levy of Harlan Estate – a winery that quickly became one of California's cult producers, along with the likes of Screaming Eagle. Harlan Estate sources its fruit from its own vineyards, but Harlan and Levy were interested in cultivating fruit from specific terroirs around the Napa Valley. The result was BOND (initially known as Bond Estates), which began making wine in 1997. The first commercial release came two years later.
There are five Cabernet Sauvignon wines under the main BOND banner. The fruit is sourced from sites the Harlan family have identified as being comparable to Grand Cru sites in France. These are small plots of between seven and 11 acres (three to five hectares) located around the Napa Valley. The wines are labeled with proprietary names. The first releases in the lineup were the Melbury and Vecina wines in 1999, the St Eden followed in 2001, the Pluribus in 2003, and finally the Quella in 2006. BOND has since received its own considerable critical recognition. Multiple wines have been rated 100 points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. The range is made at a dedicated winery in Oakville. The winemaking approach is consistent across the BOND portfolio to ensure that the wines communicate the character of each cru site. A further wine, Matriarch, is labeled as a distinct brand. It also debuted with the inaugural 1999 vintage, and is made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from all five sites.
