About The Wine

Revana built its name on a tiny St. Helena estate and a mailing list collectors wait years to get on. RX is the second label — same team, same Napa pedigree, an easier way in.

And 2023 is the one to grab: Dr. Revana's crew calls it the best vintage in the twelve years they've made this wine, and they bottled just 543 cases — the smallest run ever.

The fruit comes from mountain and bench sites across Napa — the EdCora Vineyard high on Atlas Peak and 1993 plantings at Shifflett Ranch.

It's made by Thomas Rivers Brown, the winemaker Dr. Revana brought on to push the estate to its current level, in a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon with Cabernet Franc and Merlot filling it out. Three major critics landed it between 93 and 95 points.

In the glass it's classic upper-tier Napa: black currant, Bing cherry and a flash of blueberry, lifted by violets and crushed graphite.

Full-bodied and concentrated, but never heavy — velvety tannins, a taut line of acidity, and a finish that keeps going. It drinks beautifully now and has the spine to hold 10 to 15 years.

At 543 cases, most of it is spoken for before it ever reaches a shelf. This one won't sit around.

CRITIC REVIEWS

What the Critics Said

The 2023 'RX' Cabernet Sauvignon opens with an aromatic rush of dark fruit—black currant, Bing cherry, and a hint of blueberry—layered with lifted violets, crushed graphite, spices, and dried herbs, all of which echo seamlessly onto the palate. It is full-bodied and beautifully textured, delivering impressive concentration without sacrificing polish. A dense core of ripe black fruit is wrapped in velvety tannins, unfolding in waves of flavor that build toward a long, expansive finish. This is a bold yet refined expression that is already striking in its complexity, with the structure and balance to reward cellaring for the next twenty years. ~ 95 International Wine Report 

Black-fruited, spicy aromas layered with licorice, tapenade, bitter chocolate and earth. The full-bodied palate offers a taut line of acidity and softly integrated tannins that bring a mineral edge. Made from 75% cabernet sauvignon, 15% cabernet franc and 10% merlot. A delightful bottling showing lovely purity. Drink or hold. ~ 94 James Suckling

A blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon with equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Franc brought up in barrel, the 2023 RX comes from the EdCora Vineyard on Atlas Peak and 1993 plantings from Shifflett Ranch. This ripe, seductive effort offers both red and black fruits, leafy tobacco, and floral nuances. It's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with soft, supple tannins and a beautiful finish. This sexy wine is well worth your time and money. There are 543 cases produced, and it should have 10-15 years of prime drinking. Drink 2025-2040. ~ 93 Jeb Dunnuck
