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.

Vinous (92)The 2014 Red Wine EE Tench Vineyard is surprisingly seamless and open-knit for such a young wine. Succulent dark cherry, plum, spice, licorice, mocha and chocolate fill out the wine's supple, inviting frame effortlessly. Best of all, the 2014 will drink well with minimal cellaring. |

Vinous (95)The 2015 Red Wine EE Tench Vineyard is rich, explosive and powerful in the glass. Cabernet Franc aromatics give the wine an attractive upper register to play off the dark, unctuous fruit. Dark cherry, blackberry, chocolate and espresso all rush forward. The EE has terrific tension for such a big, plush wine. Lifted Franc notes reappear on the super-expressive finish. |

Vinous (96)The 2016 Red Wine EE Tench Vineyard is a very beautiful wine that shows yet another facet of this superb Oakville site. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, mocha and new leather run through a pliant, expressive red that will drink well earlier than some of the more imposing wines in this range. The high presence of Cabernet Franc works wonders. The blend is 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Cabernet Franc and 5% Merlot. |

Vinous (88)The 2017 Red Wine EE Tench Vineyard is a dark, potent wine. Black cherry, plum, chocolate, leather, smoke, licorice and bittersweet chocolate are all amped up in this rich, dense and deep wine, supported by very firm, powerful tannins. |

Jeb Dunnuck (98-100)The same 60/40 split of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, brought up in new oak, the 2018 Tench Vineyard EE Red Wine is another incredibly pure, complex, yet powerful 2018. Rocking levels of crème de cassis, spring flowers, chocolate, and graphite give way to a full-bodied, pure, and seamless wine that has incredible potential. |

Jeb Dunnuck (96-98)Iron, crushed rocks, spice, and scorched earth notes all dominate the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard, a rich, powerful yet balanced wine. Showing the purity of fruit that's classic in the vintage, ripe tannins, terrific balance, and a big finish, it's going to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age. |

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. |
