2010 Bevan Cellars EE Cuvée
Ninth wine and doesn't fit into the theme but nonetheless the first from Oakville. Dark ruby red with a purplish hue. Complex nose with light white and purple floral notes which airs out and develops into vegetal notes and bell peppers. Moderate plus tannins (7.5/10) and moderate plus body. Solid earthiness and bell peppers on the palate that added in some dark fruit qualities. Long and lingering finish pretty smooth.
Bordeaux blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot all from the Showket Vineyard in Oakville. Always love the wines from Russell Bevan.

Price Point:
$$$$ - Average is around $181.00.Deep purplish red. Clear signs of new oak from the start with notes of tobacco, earthiness and cassis. Plush and thick texture that slowly sides down your tongue. Moderate plus tannis with a bit of dark fruits, earthy notes and a hint of dark chocolate, but not bitter. Needs a little more time, a bit of heat on the palate.
