Bevan Cellars 2021 'Ontogeny' Proprietary Red, Napa Valley

Jeb Dunnuck #1 Top Napa Red Blend List

98 Points

The 2021 vintage is showing so massive on release that it’s giving us 2018 vibes. As usual, it is a blend of all of our best vineyards, although primarily Tench Vineyard. Prominently Cabernet Sauvignon, it shows massive power and is one of our darkest Ontogeny bottlings ever, yet it still retains its complexity with the Merlot and Cabernet Franc additions.  Vibrant blueberry, boysenberry and  créme de cassis with super concentrated fruit, and with the weight and tannin in the back palate that will allow this wine to age gracefully. Deep, dark and powerful.
