Winemaker Notes
The grapes that go into Reva are from neutral sandy soils and portions of ranch that are chalky and quite alkaline. This combination makes for a wine with dark color, concentrated flavors of black fruits, fennel, and graphite. Perhaps the most distinguishing note of Reva is a unique iodine and oyster shell aromatic that is unlike anything in their other Syrahs. The wine is aged 3.5 years in barrels before bottling unfined and unfiltered.

James Suckling
Opulent yet reserved with wonderful pepper, black fruits, meats, game, and truffles on the nose and palate. Decadent. Long and wonderful. Wild wine.

Wine Spectator
Fresh, intense and vivid, with zesty wild berry, blackberry, cherry and kirsch flavors. Full-bodied and firming nicely, with tannins that provide traction and dimension. Best from 2014 through 2024.
