Tasted: 21/12/2018
Drink: 2023-2035
Author: Antonio Galloni


All the elements come together beautifully in the 2015 Pluribus, a wine that captures all the best this challenging vintage had to offer. Inky red/purplish fruit, lavender, rose petal, blood orange and mint are some of the many notes that take shape. Powerful and beautifully layered in the glass, the 2015 has more than enough fruit and overall richness to play off the structure that is such a signature of this Spring Mountain wine. Complete, multi-dimensional and stunning in its beauty, the 2015 Pluribus is a fitting conclusion to this flight of 2015s from BOND.

"Bottled in early 2018, the 2015 Pluribus is deep purple-black colored with minted cassis, pencil shavings and tobacco over a core of black plums, black berry preserves and mulberries plus hints of Chinese five spice and dried lavender. Big, rich, bold and decadent, it has a firm line of super ripe, grainy tannins and fantastic freshness lifting the generous flavors to a long finish."

"This 2015 wine was a barrel sample, although the final blend has been done. It is due to be bottled in February 2018. The deep garnet-purple colored 2015 Pluribus is a little closed at this nascent stage, offering glimpses and black and blue fruit intermingled with earth and dried herbs notions plus a hint of Indian spices. Full-bodied and very finely structured, it has loads of earth and black fruit layers supported by firm, grainy, ripe tannins, finishing on an earthy note."
