Bevan Cellars
About Bevan Cellars
Founded in 2005 by Russell Bevan and his long-term companion and business partner Victoria De Crescenzo, the success of Bevan Cellars is all the more remarkable for the fact that Russell is a self-taught winemaker.
They use a wealth of amazing vineyards that are mostly in eastern Oakville, arguably one of the valley’s sweetest spots for the region's most sought-after reds. A blend of most of their vineyard sites, but mostly from some of the rockiest blocks in the Tench Vineyard (which borders Screaming Eagle) and also Sugarloaf and Wildfoote.
An estate that has received seven 100 point scores from the Wine Advocate and four 100 point scores from Jeb Dunnuck, Oakville's Bevan Cellars has risen into the highest echelons of Napa Valley at an astonishing rate. Their wines have now become fiercely in demand as USA wine lovers clamber to secure an allocation of their stunning Bordeaux blends.

Jeb Dunnuck (98-100)The first release from this site, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard boasts a saturated purple color as well as a heavenly bouquet of blackcurrants, tobacco leaf, ground herbs, and gravelly minerality. It's one of those powerful yet ethereal, weightless wines that carries full-bodied richness, seamless tannins, and just a heavenly finish. |

Jeb Dunnuck (97)The inky black-hued 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Sage Ridge Vineyard is another 2018 that shows incredible purity of fruit as well as a sense of elegance paired with richness. Complex notes of smoked blue fruits, bouquet garni, chocolate, bay leaf, and flowers emerge from this full-bodied, silky Cabernet that has plenty of ripe tannins as well as a great finish. Give bottles a few years. |

Jeb Dunnuck (99)While this cuvée is one of the least expensive in the lineup, it’s often one of my favorites. The 2018 Ontogeny is no exception and should be snatched up by readers. A classic 2018 nose of ripe, pure blue fruits, cassis, violets, and smoked earth gives way to a full-bodied, dense, concentrated Cabernet with beautiful tannins and length. It’s going to evolve for 20 years or more. |

Jeb Dunnuck (98)An absolutely brilliant wine, the 2021 Ontogeny is an appellation blend put together by Bevan, and it's a year-in, year-out incredible value. Competing with wines 2-3 times its price (if not more), it reveals a deep purple hue as well as an exuberant, full-bodied, concentrated style carrying loads of cr me de cassis, tobacco, violets, charcoal, and graphite-like aromas and flavors. Super-rich, opulent, yet flawlessly balanced, with silky tannins, you should buy a case of this if you can. It should have at least 10-15 years of prime drinking. |

Jeb Dunnuck (98)The 2018 Tench Vineyard EE Red Wine is based on a 60/40 split of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc from a great, great vineyard on the east side of Oakville, just beside Screaming Eagle. Ample blue fruits, white chocolate, tobacco, and spring flower nuances emerge from the glass, and it’s full-bodied, concentrated, and incredibly sexy, with a level of opulence and hedonism that’s not often found in the vintage. It's another blockbuster of a 2018 from Beven. Drink bottles any time over the coming 15+ years. |

Vinous (96)The 2016 Proprietary Red Sugarloaf Mountain is built on lifted aromatics and more of a mid-weight sense of structure than is found in the other wines of the range. Sage, crème de cassis, menthol, lavender, mint and dark fruit are all nicely layered. Gracious and light on its feet (that is not a typo), with gorgeous perfume from the Franc, the Proprietary Red is distinctive and incredibly inviting. |

Jeb Dunnuck (97)Huge blue fruits, cassis, violets, and leafy herbs notes emerge from Bevan’s 2019 Sugarloaf Mountain Vineyard, a full-bodied, fresh, lively Cabernet that has silky yet building tannins, good acidity, and one heck of a finish. As with all of the 2019s here, it already offers pleasure, yet I suspect a few years of bottle age are warranted here. |

Wine Advocate (97-99+)A barrel sample, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard is deep garnet-purple colored and skips out of the glass with bright, cheery 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. |

Vinous (97)The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Wildfoote Vineyard Vixen Block is one of the most complex wines in the entire range. Red fruit, iron, mint, rose petal, spice and blood orange give the 2018 a real feeling of exotic beauty. Each taste reveals a new facet. Time in the glass brings out the wine's striking aromatic presence and overall intensity. |
