I know there are big basketball things happening but thought this was awesome for a fellow board member.
It is a little wordy I know but Russel has managed to achieve an amazing score and it is worth a read.
Winemaker/Proprietor Russel Bevans and his wife Victoria have been on Cloud Nine since Robert Parker's Wine Advocate reviewed their Bevan Cellar wines for the first time a few weeks ago. These 2007s represent the third vintage of their work, and the care and quality of these hand-crafted wines shine through. Since production is extremely limited – 213 cases of Showket Vineyard Red and 275 cases of Showket Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon – Wally's is fortunate to have obtained enough to offer its E-Club members, since now being in the limelight has created national demand for this previously quietly-distributed brand. And, more good news for you, one-week only 15%-off pricing will be in effect for you! A star is born, and all you have to do to grab it is to reach out to your keyboard and place an order.
2007 Bevan Cellars Showket Vineyard
Mae's Cuvee Cabernet Sauvignon #112675
E-Club: $127.50
Regular Price: $149.99
"Also enormously impressive, but more backward and in need of bottle age is the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Showket Vineyard. This opaque purple-hued Cabernet exhibits classic notes of creosote, creme de cassis, licorice, and cedar. It is a relatively massive wine (as one expects from these hillsides that also produce the superb Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Francs from the Dalla Valle winery). This deep, broad, enormous 2007 needs to be forgotten for 5-6 years, and drunk over the following three decades. These are very impressive efforts! Bevan Cellars' Syrahs from Sonoma's Bennett Valley will be reviewed in the next issue, along with other non-Napa wines From Napa Valley, this small, artisanal producer has fashioned two brilliant 2007s." 95+ Points, Robert Parker
2007 Bevan Cellars Showket Vineyard Red John's Cuvee #112676
E-Club: $127.50
Regular Price: $149.99
"The 2007 Showket Vineyard Red Wine is from an Oakville hillside site that was just sold to the Peter Michael Winery. (Let’s hope proprietor Russell Bevan will continue to be able to access fruit from this site.) It is a blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc along with 10% Merlot, is a beauty. Aromas of flowers, blue and black fruits, wood smoke, and spice box are offered up in a lavishly persistent and intense aromatic display. Opaque purple-colored, deep, and full-bodied with terrific fruit, purity, and density, this outstanding wine should drink well for 10-15+ years. Bevan Cellars’ Syrahs from Sonoma’s Bennett Valley will be reviewed in the next issue, along with other non-Napa wines From Napa Valley, this small, artisanal producer has fashioned two brilliant 2007s." 95 Points, Robert Parker
