Bevan Cellars is a producer of Napa Valley and Sonoma wines based in Bennett Valley. It sources fruit from vineyards across the two major wine regions to produce small-lot wines made primarily of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon. Bevan Cellars' full-bodied, richly flavored wines score high with the press, making them highly coveted by collectors, and usually only available on allocation.

The estate was founded by Russell Bevan and Victoria De Crescenzo in 2005. Before relocating to California, the two made regular trips to Napa Valley where they met and were mentored by esteemed winemakers Philip Togni and Bob Foley.

Bevan Cellars is most famous for its red wines made from Cabernet Sauvignon, both varietal and as part of a Bordeaux blend. These wines include the Sugar Loaf Mountain Red, the Tin Box, and the McGah Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, all of which have been awarded 100-point scores by American wine critic Robert Parker

Robert Parker 96 RP - The 2008 Danger D Proprietary Red Showket Vineyard is a 50/50 blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Deep garnet in color with a touch of brick, it emerges confidently from the glass with showy scents of prunes, baked raspberries, Morello cherries and dried mulberries plus hints of dusty earth, truffles, dried mint and iron ore. The full-bodied palate is rich and seductive with beautifully integrated, plush tannins and seamless freshness supporting the earthy layers, finishing long and harmonious. Drinking superbly right now, it should cellar for a further 6-8 years+.
