Revana Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2006 – 95 Points

The 2006 Revana features rich, sultry dark flavors including sweet plums, creme de cassis, black cherry, and a hint of smoky cedar on the bold finish. This weighty textured, full-bodied, opulent new release already shows impressive complexity and should impress for 10-12 years, peaking around 2015 in our estimate. Decant minimum one hour if popping the cork prior to 2014.

Alexana Pinot Noir Revana Vineyard 2006 – 94 Points.

Alexana Pinot Noir

We love this new discovery because it captures the best of both ‘worlds’ from Oregon + California Pinot Noir! Rich, supple and graceful with captivating aromas of blackberry and bright cherry, perfumed with typical Oregon minerality, cinnamon and lavender oil with distinctly robust ‘California style’ fruit flavors (after decanting one hour). An expressive, open textured palate is layered with succulent sweet red fruit with hints of peppercorn and spice. The refined and lithe tannins last beautifully on the palate with a poised and polished finish. This sensational new discovery is guaranteed to thrill for the next 3 – 5 years, peaking around 2014 in our estimate. 94 points
