Interest Cab with very strong floral notes. Both on the nose and the pallet! A little bit unbalanced with medium body but strong finish. We had fond memories of the old grouchy winemaker. One of the first we met in Walla Walla. He was called the ‘grave digger’. Tough guy, tough life but a heart of gold. — 8 years ago

In keeping with tonight's Central Coast theme, we very much enjoyed this Syrah/Mourvèdre blend. Beautiful wine. — 9 years ago

Another full throttle effort from Russell From. This is more graceful than Nuts & Bolts with slightly more polished tannins and refined structure. Wonderful!

Dare I say that Russell From could be the American answer to Sparky Marquis? — 9 years ago

Light bodied with a nose of vanilla, plums, and red fruits. This ain't your average Syrah by any means. A spicy palate with some rustic undertones. A touch sweeter than I expected but in a good way. Nice, long finish. Not a lot of fat on this one but it still makes an impression. — 9 years ago

Yyyaaaaa that's pretty good. Russell never disappoints. Big nose wafting from the glass with a rich blackberry compote, smoke, tar, overripe plum, and sugar covered raspberries. The entry is smooth and lush, but not overly fruit forward and imbalanced as I almost expected. Baked blackberry pie with a little char on it. This thing is lovely. — 10 years ago

This fruit from harbison vineyard (a hidden tiny property nestled among stars in Oakville) boasts classic Oakville notes of cherry and sugar plum with a silky velvety texture that makes this wine so approachable. Notes of mocha, toasted cedar and graceful yet long finish make this a beautiful wine in an impossible vintage. Ps Russell bevan is also the wine maker for harbison"s own estate micro production wine. 50 cases of this wine made. — 12 years ago

This blend of cab franc and merlot has less forward fruit than most of Russell and Victoria's wines and more expression of terroir. Beautiful aromas fresh flowers and graphite and more subtle purple fruit on the palate and a long finish. This is age worthy. What a great producer and great people Russell and Victoria are! — 13 years ago

Another winner from Russell From at Herman Story. Great notes of dark chocolate, blackberry, and kirsch on the nose. Beautifully integrated palate with sweet, evolved tannins enveloped in fruit and glycerine, followed by a nice (albeit slightly hot) finish. Terrific. — 8 years ago

One of my go-to SB's for the summer. Love the big tropical fruits. Russell is a stud in pretty much everything he touches. Down to my last couple of bottles of the '13 but it is still killing it — 9 years ago

Still quite young, but good flavors and potential. Currently lacks complexity and is more primary in its palate presentation, but still quite tasty. A bit rough around the edges. Needs time. — 10 years ago

20 percent chard, this wine is bigger than a New Zealand Sav Blanc. No oak, grapefruit, lime, jalapeño oddly enough and bell pepper. — 11 years ago

Russell bevan typical unfiltered and full of lees in your face chard. Tropical fruit and full of hazelnuts with a finish that goes on and on. Not over Oaked at all like so many other intense Cali chards — 12 years ago

Another gem from Russell From. First time we've had this SV effort and it, like everything from Herman Story, was an in-your-face fruit bomb. Delicious and the first bottle to empty. — 9 years ago
