“Seductive aromas of blackcurrants, plums and flowers, including roses. Really incredible this year with such verticality, depth and brightness. Goes on and on and on. Superb fruit character with plums and currants. Love it. Drinkable now, but give it time. Try after 2025.” - James Suckling

“Deep purple-black colored, the 2018 Vecina springs with notes of black raspberries, redcurrant jelly, and crushed blackcurrants scents, with hints of roses, cinnamon toast, and dusty soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is very fine-grained and elegant with tightly knit flavors and a perfumed finish. This is a real head-turner!” - Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, The Wine Independent

“Vecina vineyard is located in the western foothills of Oakville, just to the southeast of the winery (up on Oakville Grade). The 2018 Vecina displays a deep garnet-purple color and offers slowly emerging classic notes of black currants, black cherries, blackberry pie and cedar chest with hints of charcoal, tar, pencil lead and fragrant earth. The full-bodied palate has a rock-solid structure of firm, grainy tannins and tons of freshness supporting the generous black fruits, finishing on a lingering mineral note.” - Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

“Lots of red and black fruits, loamy soil, and savory spice notes emerge from the 2018 Vecina, which is medium to full-bodied and has a rounded, layered texture, ripe yet sweet tannins, and a great finish. It’s another classic wine from this team that’s just about impossible to find fault with.” - Jeb Dunnuck
