Revana Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2005, 750ml
The 2005 vintage is arguably our finest yet. The wine exudes elegance. The aromas are beautifully perfumed and the palate shows layers of flavor, silky texture and explosive yet refined fruit. It is truly an exceptional wine.
" This stylish wine shows dark ruby tones and deep aromas of black cherry, cocoa pwder, toast and spice. The palate is elegant and silky with bright purity of fruit and mouth-filling texture. Flavors of cherry echo the aromas, followed by layers of cassis, chocolate, black olive, crushed herb and exotic spice notes. The mid-palate is lush with beautifully integrated tannins leading to a finish of remarkable length and finess."
Heidi Peterson Barrett, Winemaker
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
Deep plum/purple in color with a sweet nose of burning embers, charcoal, black currants and some subtle smoked herbs, the wine again displays terrific aromatic complexity and a full-bodied, nicely layered palate impression with integrated acidity, tannin, alcohol and wood. It is a slightly deeper, richer wine that the 2004, and the tannins seems slightly more elevated, but this wine has great balance and just needs 1-2 years of bottle age. It should actually eclipse the 2004 in 3-4 years. 92pts
