Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Directly adjacent to Screaming Eagle and across from Tin Box, this parcel selection is based on red soils, where Bevan says the pH is always lower and the fruit profile redder. That said, I found the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard The Calixtro to come out of the bottle smoky, with almost charred plum and dark chocolate notes. Admittedly, the wine did develop hints of cherry and redcurrant with air. Full-bodied, rich and velvety, it adds earthy, loam-like savory notes on the long, mouthwatering finish.

• Wine Spectator: Jeb Dunnuck: All Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard The Calixtro is incredible and unquestionably a perfect wine in this reviewer’s opinion. Ripe currants, iron, black cherries, graphite, and some meaty, spicy notes all define the bouquet, and it’s full-bodied, has flawless balance, ripe, supple tannins, and a great finish. It delivers a rare mix of purity, precision, and opulence that’s something to behold. I like it today, yet it should cruise for another two decades in cold cellars.Producer Information

Producer Information

Bevan’s winemaking approach centers on managing tannins, resulting in wines that are massive yet refined. To achieve this, he employs cold soaks and extended maceration. In addition to tending his own label, he consults for a handful of clients, including Wren Hop, Westerhold Family, Jemrose, Château Boswell and Harbison. “I have to think I have a shot at being one of the big boys on the block,” says Bevan. It’s a bold assertion, but shows the depth of his confidence, backed up by the quality of his wines.
