Revana Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, California, United States 2021

Description

Nose Initial impressions give notes of eucalyptus and floral components, reminiscent of lilac and rose hips. Hints of black olive and deep plum round out the bouquet. Palate The generous mouthfeel on the palate reveals deep blue fruit and toasted brioche, giving way to layers of toffee, baking chocolate and clove accenting the lush, lingering finish.

Revana Family Vineyard is in St. Helena, in Napa Valley. The estate was founded in 1997 by Madaiah Revana, a physician with a love of California Cabernet Sauvignon. The 9-acre vineyard is planted to Cabernet Sauvignon. Heidi Barrett was the winemaker in charge of the debut 2001 vintage and Thomas Rivers Brown is winemaker now. Revana makes only one wine, a Cabernet Sauvignon, and it has already won accolades from wine writers and collectors. In 2010 Wine Spectator named Revana to the #4 spot in its list of 100 Top Wines of 2010.
