Description
The visionary, the winegrower, the maestro—all are critical to the crafting of a wine blend for the ages. The Taub Family Vineyards Triumvirate, produced exclusively for Premiere Napa Valley, embodies the intensity, focus and care of proprietor Marc D. Taub, winemaker Russell Bevan and our Napa Valley viticultural partners. A celebration of the evolution of this iconic brand, this barrel-select Cabernet Sauvignon draws from three apex vineyard sources within the best nested appellations of Napa Valley. It deftly balances boldness and harmony, plushness and power, seriousness and sensuality.
Russell Bevan
Winemaker, Taub Family Vineyards
Napa legend Russell Bevan has been fascinated by wine—Cabernet Sauvignon in particular—since he was a teen. He spent his college years working for the Gallo family, which further ignited his passion and helped launch what would become a hugely successful winemaking career. In 2004, with a ton of premium, Eastern Oakville-grown fruit in-hand (acquired from iconic grower, Kal Showket), Russell brought his first Cabernet to life and he hasn’t looked back since. Today, Russell’s wines have earned a cascade of over one hundred 95+ point scores, including several 100-point nods from The Wine Advocate. His trademark, provocative style emphasizes intense concentration and seductive textures—wines that strike an irresistible balance between effortless longevity and accessibility for immediate pleasure.
