Tasting notes
Dark raspberry jam, rose petals, mint and spices emerge from the Bevan Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon McGah, a wine stands out in this range for its expressive inner perfume, silky tannins and floral, lifted style. There is plenty of richness in the glass, but the McGah remains the most aromatically expressive and radiant of these Cabernets. If I owned them all, the McGah is probably the wine I would drink first, as it is the most open and giving today.

The perfect 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon McGah comes from a Rutherford parcel owned by the McGah family. Virtually all Cabernet Sauvignon aged in 75% Taransaud and 25% Gamba wood, it boasts off-the-charts richness as well as an inky/purple color and notes of graphite, spring flowers, blackberries, blueberries, cassis, licorice and forest floor. This incredibly fruity, full-bodied, voluptuously textured wine can be consumed now and over the next two decades or more.
