Bevan 2019 Tench Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley ~ 99+ Points

Winery Notes: “‘The incredibly rocky soils of the Tench block this wine comes from, consistently develops incredible, intense flavors: acidity on the tip of your tongue, weight that pushes from start to finish, blackberry and currant fruit, with great texture and finesse. A massive wine that maintains a sense of grace and elegance.”

Robert Parker 99+ Points: “A barrel sample, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard is deep garnet-purple colored and skips out of the glass with bright cherry, blackberries, crushed blackcurrants and plum preserves scents with hints of menthol, bay leaves and candied violets. Full-bodied, the palate is bombastic and juicy with plush tannins and lively acid, finishing long.”

Jeb Dunnuck 99 Points: “A stellar looking barrel sample, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench offers a vivid purple hue as well as pretty blue fruits, iron, white flowers, and a liquid violet-like character. It’s more elegant and streamlined compared to the more opulent 2018, with beautiful balance.”
