About the Winery:
With a passion for Bordeaux and a personal philosophy of the importance of balance between autonomy and collaboration, Dr. Revana enlists the talents of Thomas Rivers Brown as winemaker, and Jim Barbour as vineyard manager, to create one of Napa Valley's premier estates. The estate is located just north of St Helena in one of the cooler micro climates of Napa Valley, preserving a natural elegance and purity. Extremely limited irrigation to encourage vine stress. 100% Napa Valley Fruit from Oak Knoll, St Helena and Calistoga AVAs. Five day cold-soak prior to 16 day whole berry fermentation.

About the wine:
This highly-allocated estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon tells the story of our pursuit of purity, elegance, and immense structure. Crafted from our meticuliously managed eight acre property located in the narrowest section of St. Helena, at the north end of Napa Valley. Under the guidance of two Napa Valley legends, Vineyard Manager, Jim Barbour, and Winemaker, Thomas Rivers Brown, our fruit is hand-picked, hand-sorted, and then whole berry fermented in micro-fermentation batches. This results in a beautifully textured and authentically powerful Napa Cabernet with elegant integration of French Oak.

Ratings & Reviews

96 Points - International Wine Review:
"Another knock-out Cabernet from Revana, this one is 100% Cabernet fruit coming from the Estate Vineyards in St. Helena and is aged for 18 months in 80% new French oak barrels, with the rest being neutral. It’s the best wine I tasted this year from Revana, and boasts scrumptious notes of black plum, boysenberry pie, cassis, dark baking chocolate, toasted cinnamon, wet earth, saline, and pencil shavings. It’s complex, wonderfully structured with no rough edges, and finishes long and steady. Enjoy this one over the next 20 years with proper storage. Highly recommended." - J. Young (Jun 2022)

95 Points - Jeb Dunnuck:
"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Revana Estate Vineyard is more pure and focused, with impressive cassis and assorted darker fruits as well as notions of chocolate, crushed rock, and lead pencil. This full-bodied, nicely balanced 2019 has ripe tannins, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's drinking nicely today yet certainly has another 15+ of prime drinking." (Dec 2021)

93 Points - Wine Spectator:
"Juicy and nicely defined, with forward flavors of cassis, cherry paste and plum preserves backed by red licorice and iron notes. Fruit-driven, but with good tension and energy through the lengthy finish. Best from 2023 through 2035. 2,000 cases made." - JM (May 2022)
