2014 Bevan Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon CurmudgeonNapa Valley more |
4/25/2024 - KTelaak_Buffalo Likes this wine: 95 pointsThis wine was a bit awkward initially and after about 2 hours it really developed and was just classic Bevan magic for the rest of the night. Absolutely decant if you can. |

4/24/2024 - Bob23 wrote: NRVery much a Bevan-style pinot, by which I mean it's deep and ripe and luscious, but with acidity and tannic structure. Not going to appeal to Burg fans at all, but a solid example of Cali pinot turned up to an 11. |

4/22/2024 - Mr T wrote: NRbig, deep rich Cali cab with some initial green coming perhaps from the cab franc but that quickly passed. wine is classically ripe for Bevan, but reasonably well balanced and not overly hot. Really enjoyed this wine and no doubt 10 years in the bottle has settled it down. that said, this is hardly earthy or showing secondary/tertiary signs of maturity. IF you like Bevan wines, you will enjoy this wine. |

2016 Bevan Cellars EE Cuvée Tench VineyardOakville Red Bordeaux Blend more |
4/21/2024 - Red Sox Fan Likes this wine: 94 pointsI agree with RayT, the 2016 seems much bigger than prior EE vintages. We had it after a 2014 Tor BTK, and it was a little like going from Smokey Robinson to AC/DC. Both wines had a 60 minute decant. I’d try the 2016 EE again in a few years with a longer decant. |

4/20/2024 - Barsacpinci Likes this wine: 91 pointsSurprisingly big wine. Nice gold color color. Aromatic nose of grapefruit. Palate shows typical grass overlayed with melon and lemon. THis could handle a couple more years. |

4/13/2024 - AGELVIS Likes this wine: 95 pointsTwo hour decant. Opaque black core, with an electric magenta rim. Stewed black cherry, slate, amaretto chocolate cookie, caramel, orange pulp, coffee, and cinnamon toast. Dry, satiny, full bodied palate, with lots of orange. Firm, yet plush tannins on the long finish. |

4/18/2024 - seijaro Likes this wine: 95 pointsWow, what an SB! Yes, pricey... but worth it. Among the best SBs I've ever had, back to the 2005 Rochioli. Buy some. |

2016 Bevan Cellars OntogenyNapa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more |
12/7/2020 - VAGenius Likes this wine: 94 pointsBold nose with blackberry, black raspberry, briar patch, tar, and smoke. Strong fruit-driven palate with blackberry and black currant followed by black licorice, menthol, and milk chocolate. Polished finish with blueberry and toffee/butterscotch notes, light hers, clean stony notes a a touch of oak. Modern and fruit-forwards, its a pleasure to drink. (Note the cork was showing seepage on the sides!) |

4/15/2024 - lvjohn Likes this wine: 92 pointsDefinitely on the mellow side of life right now. For those of us who love this wine for it's vibrancy and the Dry Stack Vineyard fruit, it's a bit of a disappointment. The purity and essence of what we considered on of the best California S.B.'s really is there and it's a unique wine. |

4/7/2024 - Elkcims wrote: 93 points1 hour slo-ox - closed. Rebottled and let oxidize further and drank most on day 2. Had the usual blackberry, black currant characteristics and some charcoal yet with a bitter tannin and a green unripened fruit taste. Bought on release and stored impeccably in cellar. I think I missed my “best by” window by a 4-5 years on this vintage. Not unpleasant but not at all like the rich decadent Bevan juice I’m accustomed to. 92-93 |

2021 Bevan Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane VineyardSt. Helena more |
4/6/2024 - deadwax Likes this wine: 95 pointsGrabbed the wrong bottle, did not intend to open this so young. Oh well, it was terrific. Double decanted 4 hours ahead. This will be so good with proper time. Dark fruits, an almost liqueur intensity. |

4/6/2024 - mfimiani47 Likes this wine: 92 pointsThis was more open than I thought it would be. Plush, ripe and dark fruits. Got even better with 1+ hours in decanter. Will certainly get better with some further aging. |

4/6/2024 - ShineLovesWine wrote: 91 pointsOpened this to finish off my last bottle of the 2015. The bottle has been stored well, but the cork came out in about 3 pieces. No obvious signs of it being flawed on the nose. Poured into a decanter for over 2 hours. First few sips after decanting were disjointed. Came together slowly with more air time as we sipped it slowly with dinner. As others mentioned, profile had a mix between black and red fruit, hints of tobacco and tar. Missing quality secondary notes. Overall, this was missing the pleasurable mark we were hoping for on this evening. Likely past its peak prime and steadily sliding down a bumpy snow hill. Glad this was my last 2015 bottle, otherwise I’d be popping the remainder of them quickly. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (2) |

2019 Bevan Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Tin Box VineyardOakville more |
4/2/2024 - MotherMongo Likes this wine: 94 pointsProbably the most nuanced Bevan cab I've ever had. It doesn't smash you in the face like some of them do; rather it delivered a intriguing blend of red fruits and licorice very smoothly. A little tannic, but certainly not as much as other Bevans. Very much enjoyed the change of pace. |

4/5/2024 - Cablover1982 Likes this wine: 94 pointsSo approachable for a ‘21. This Ontogeny is extremely delicious. It could and should get better with time but it’s already a very tasty wine. Ripe black fruits, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, leather and slight tobacco. Solid acidity with big pillowy tannins on long finish. I tell myself to hold but I’m already on my 3rd bottle. |
