Joe Czerwinski - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"The terrific 2021 Proprietary Red Sugarloaf Mountain is a 60-40 blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot from this vineyard in southern Napa. Vaguely floral and leafy, loaded with purple raspberries and cherries, this is really complex, with lovely fruit. Full-bodied, supple, silky and seamless, it finishes long and elegant."

"Gorgeous blue fruits, mountain scrub brush, sage, espresso, black raspberry, and violet notes all emerge from the 2021 Proprietary Red Sugarloaf Mountain Vineyard, a blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot that's full-bodied and has terrific overall balance, building, fine-grained tannins, and a good spine of acidity that carries through the finish. This is another gorgeous wine in the lineup that shines for its complexity, balance, and depth."

"The 2021 Red Wine Sugarloaf Mountain is a blend of 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Merlot. Ripe and juicy, the 2021 delivers the goods and then some. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, cloves, chocolate and new leather are all dialed up. This heady, exotic red is classic Bevan all the way. The 2021 is one of the best Sugarloaf wines I can remember tasting. What a knock-out. Drinking Window: 2024-2033"
"The 2021 Sugarloaf Mountain Red Wine is as perfect a wine from Sugarloaf Mountain as we have ever produced. Dark, lush, plush, silky and sexy. Mouthwatering acidity balances with the plushness of the ripe berry fruit characteristics. A perfect food wine, pairing nicely with smoked meats, duck and lamb. The Cabernet Franc adds a touch of tobacco quality. A beautiful wine that will only become more stunning with age. Produced from the Sugarloaf Mountain Vineyard, Napa Valley AVA." -Winery
