Revana Cabernet Sauvignon 2004
This vineyard seems to be hitting its stride with another delicious Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose is wide open with ripe fruit aromas of blackberry, cherry, and dark chocolate.
Explosive flavors in the mouth of beautiful ripe fruit similar to the aromas, a rich lush mouth feel and amazing length.
Very silky yet powerful. Tannins are imperceptible yet this wine has backbone and tons of fruit character that will lend itself well during aging.
Wine Enthusiast
There’s a spicy quality to the aroma of this polished Cab, with suggestions of dill, sage, crushed autumn leaves and even Provençal lavender and thyme. It’s a unique interpretation of Napa and must come from the vineyard’s terroir. In the mouth, notes of herbs and tobacco lead to more savory sweet cherry, currant and vanilla oak flavors. This interesting, even dramatic Cab should develop over the next decade.
Score: 94.

Wine Spectator
Aromas of fresh herb, sage and dusty berry fold into the ripe currant and cherry fruit. Has excellent structure, depth, balance and proportion, and the finish is long and persistent, ending with a nice mineral edge. Best from 2008 through 2014.
Score: 93.

Wine Advocate
The deep ruby/purple-tinged 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits a licorice-infused, black currant, sweet cherry, and toasty oak-scented bouquet followed by a flashy, front-end loaded wine with beautiful fruit, medium to full body, and no hard edges. This friendly Cabernet should evolve nicely for at least a decade.
Score: 90.
