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.

Marc Taub
Winemaker, Taub Family Vineyards
Marc D. Taub is the third generation leader of a dynamic, family-owned enterprise that has been a trailblazer in the wine and spirits industry for 43 years. As leader of his family’s highly successful wine and spirits import businesses, Palm Bay International and Taub Family Selections, Marc also had a vision of one day making his own wines. This came to fruition in 2013, when Marc acquired Napa Valley producer Heritance – which later evolved to Taub Family Vineyards – representing his first investment in California. Taub Family Vineyards Napa is the cornerstone of the Marc’s California winemaking initiatives.
"One of the most compelling elements about Napa Valley is the incredible range of wines that result from its microclimates, sites and array of vintner philosophies. Like our country at large, the beauty of Napa Valley is in its diversity, and it’s thrilling to share our expressions of this extraordinary terroir.” - Marc D. Taub
