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.

"From a tiny vineyard in eastern Oakville, Bevan's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Tin Box Vineyard is pretty stuff, extremely floral yet with concentrated cassis fruit. Full-bodied, it boasts a wonderfully supple texture across the mid-palate, then turns silky and seductive on the lingering, dark chocolate-tinged finish." Wine Advocate 98-100
