SOLD OUTRevana 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon

95 Points, Connoisseurs’ Guide
“Here is a deep and wonderfully concentrated young Cabernet that is long on showy oak but is directed first and foremost by its very deep and confident curranty fruit. It is full and fleshy in feel with carefully integrated tannins lending structure without undue toughness, and both its balance and real sense of fruity reserve make a strong and compelling case for five to ten years of steady improvement. Some may find its reliance on ripeness a bit more than they like, but if you are a seeker of depth and precise character, then this beauty is going to taste as good as it can get in the variety.”

92 Points, Wine Spectator magazine
“Dark-hued, intense and concentrated with a wonderful core of rich currant, lead pencil, cedar, sage and tobacco, finishing with a mix of ripe Cabernet and supple, fine-grained tannins. Best from 2007 through 2013.”

Heidi Peterson Barrett, Winemaker’s Notes
“Deep ruby red in color with wide-open aromas of black cherry, cassis and chocolate. Flavors match the nose with emphasis on ripe fruit from our estate vineyard. The mouthfeel is big, lush and round with barely-there silky tannins. Lots of nuance as well; hints of tobacco and sweet toasty French oak keep you going back for another sip.”
