RP97: The 2008 Vecina exhibits an opaque purple color as well as a glorious perfume of charcoal, camphor, black currants, forest floor and underbrush presented in a remarkably intense, full-bodied, layered style. Stunning concentration, purity and depth make this (at least in late October, 2010) my favorite 2008 from Bond. It should drink well for three decades or more.
