Revana Family Vineyard
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Here is a wonderful Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley.
Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim. Not showing age much.
Fruity nose with blackberries, blueberries, cherries, figs, chocolates, tobacco, mocha, coke, earth, cedar, spices, vanilla, licorice, raisins, leather and black pepper.
Full bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black cherries, sweet raspberries, tobacco, cola, coffee, cedar, chocolates, peppercorn, earth, leather, vanilla, licorice and spices.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a gorgeous Napa Cabernet from a great vintage. Showing great complexity and a great mouthfeel.
This 9 year old is drinking very nicely now. Well balanced, tasty and delicious. Smooth and rich.
I had the 2013 a few months ago, and I liked this vintage even better.
Will age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Still has a lot to offer.
Thank you Kim and Barry for sharing this with me.
Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up (1 hour). I used the Vspin to save some time.
I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
96 points
$150.

It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a beautiful one.
Dark inky in color with a short purple rim.
Fruity nose of blackberries, sweet cherries, raisins, dried figs, tobacco, cedar, leather, vanilla, licorice spices, chocolates, mocha, coke, metals, light earth, pencil lead and peppercorn.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Showing nice complexity with a great mouthfeel.
Good right out of the bottle, and better as it opens up and shows more complexity. Good by itself or with food. I loved smelling on it for a long time.
This 6 year old from the great 2013 vintage is tasty and delicious. Has the potential to be a 97 point wine in 5 years.
Thank you Barry for sharing.
This is a nice wine to drink all by itself and talk about. Well balanced, rich and expressive.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged in French oak barrels for 20 months.
14.7% alcohol by volume.

Hard to beat a Heidi Barrett wine. Already extremely supple. Dark and lingering legs, big fruit on the nose. Not overpowering in oak, but a good amount of vanilla and dark fruit. I imagine this will hit a sweet spot in 5-7 years.
