Robert Parker writes in Wine Advocate: "The irrepressible and virtually bigger-than-life Russell Bevan continues to shake things up in Northern California, not only with his own wines, offered under the label of Bevan Cellars, but also through his consulting work, which has produced a bevy of provocative and high-quality efforts. Few people making wine are more interesting to talk to than Russell Bevan, as his meticulous attention to every detail from rootstocks to clones to the craft of winemaking itself leaves little left to the imagination. One senses that his destiny long ago was to become one of the world’s great craftsman of wine, and he’s proving it time and time again with Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, and even Syrah."
