Bevan Cellars Tin Box Vineyard Red, Oakville, USA 2023

Tin Box Vineyard Red 2023 is a compelling expression of Napa Valley’s legendary Oakville terroir from one of California’s most exciting small producers. Sourced from the coveted Tin Box Vineyard — a site with deep, well-drained soils and prime hillside exposure that previously yielded 100+ point wines with earlier vintages — this 2023 bottling showcases intense dark fruit, plush cassis and blackberry layers, with nuanced spice, licorice and tobacco notes that unfold beautifully with air. Silky yet structured, with fine-grained tannins and excellent balance, it’s rich and expressive while remaining poised for cellaring. A natural choice for collectors and enthusiasts seeking a collectible Napa Cabernet-dominant wine with pedigree and personality from a boutique producer with a track record of high scores and cult interest.

"All Clone 7 from this Jean Phillips-owned Oakville vineyard off the Silverado Trail, Bevan's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Tin Box Vineyard displays wonderfully complex scents of crushed stone, cherries, raspberries and delicate herbal and floral nuances. It's full-bodied but with a silky, diaphanous texture that gives the impression of weightlessness while still transmitting long-lasting and pretty flavors that invite sip after sip.." Wine Advocate 99
