2008 Revana St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon

Description

90    Wine Spectator
“Aromas of roasted herb, dried currant, sage and underbrush are full-bodied and complex, savory and alluring, approachable already.” (11/2011)

Robert Parker for Wine Advocate
“Both [2007 & 2008] of these Cabernet Sauvignons are soft, elegant, dark ruby/plum/garnet-colored, evolved, medium-bodied efforts with attractive notes of spice, earth, red and black currants intermixed with herbs and background oak… Heidi Barrett is the consulting winemaker and the well-known Jim Barbour is the viticultural manager. Both are identical blends of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot.” (12/2010)
