“The 1991 is a massive yet pure Cabernet Sauvignon that can be drunk now but promises to be even better by the turn of the century and last for 20 more years. Over the Thanksgiving holiday, I did a tasting of top 1991’s and the Seavey came out first in a very competitive lineup. A small quantity of the 1991 was still exquisite, perhaps even greater than it had been 72 hours earlier. Amazing! Rating: 97.” Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Dec 1995.

“The opaque black/purple-colored 1997 is the finest Seavey Cabernet since the 1991. The bouquet offers aromas of licorice, jammy cassis, and toast. Sensationally concentrated and multi-layered, this full-bodied, gorgeously symmetrical classic boasts an unctuous texture & fabulous 50+ second finish. One of the majestic Cabernets of this top flight vintage. Cellaring up to 2030. Rating: 96 Points.” Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Jan 2000.

""Gorgeous fudge/chocolate notes intermixed with blackberry and cassis, sweet silky tannins, and a long finish with no hard edges make for a delicious wine already showing complexity and best drunk over the next 10 years. The Seavey Caravina Cabernet is perhaps the best second label wine in Napa…keep in mind I have Seaveys going back to 1990 in my cellar. Rating: 92.” Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2008.

The lush nose of ripe blackberries with hints of cedar, clove and dark chocolate gives way to an exceedingly long and rich finish. The wine's opulence is a signature of the classic 2005 vintage. To our core Merlot blocks we added Cabernet Sauvignon (20%) and Petit Verdot (5%) from the very top of our vineyard, a portion we call “Masochist Hill” because of its extreme slope.

“The glories of this estate remain its Cabernet Sauvignons. After retasting the 1994 Cabernet Sauvignon, I was even more impressed. The 1994 exhibits an opaque purple color and an exuberant yet still young and unformed nose of spice, black fruits and cedar. Full-bodied with layers of dense, ripe fruit, this rich, full-bodied moderately tannic wine should be at its best in 5 years. It will keep for 20+ years.” Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Dec 1997.
|
"The outstanding 1998, produced from an extremely small crop, is a rich, full-bodied, dense effort on a fast evolutionary track; the '98 is loaded with chocolatey, black cherry, and cassis fruit, an open-knit, sexy, expansive texture, outstanding concentration and purity, low acidity, and a fat, chewy finish." Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2000.

Hello Seavey Patrons!
Thank you for visiting our new website! A few customers have recently experienced "error" messages when attempting to place orders. Although, most everyone seems to be able to transact orders successfully without hitches. After hours on the phone with tech support, we have discovered the major snare. The "country field" (ie: United States) was not uploaded along with customer data into our new website.
SOLUTION: Please visit My Account section at top right of website, log in with your email address and temporary pass: marchmadness . Then, COMPLETELY rebuild all billing, shipping, contact, cc data etc from scratch leaving no field unpopulated. This seems to be a ready fix. So good luck and call / email us with questions! Thank you and SO SORRY about account headaches...we could not have foreseen that the country code would be so critical!
ALSO: Here are a few additional tips and alternatives for successful ordering:
1. Our website works best with Internet Explorer 7 or Firefox 3 web browsers. Apple Safari is functional though less than ideal.
2. Make sure that your web browser is set to accept "cookies". Our new website is heavily reliant up cookies (small information-gathering codes) for accurate data processing. You can delete cookies at a later time, if you so desire.
3. After logging in, you may visit the My Account section to the top right of the website to update contact and billing information as well as review wine orders (going forward from March 2009).
4. You are welcome to proceed to checkout without creating an account. However, if you have an account with us, you are able to revisit order history and store data such as shipping addresses.
5. This is a new site, and not all customer data was transferred over from the previous web hosting company. Your email address is your user ID. You may reset your password at anytime.
6. During checkout, right before placing order, be sure to reconfirm country and state dropdown fields for both billing and shipping addresses.
7. You are welcome to contact the winery (see Contact page above) to place orders over the phone. If you have ordered with us before, you may simply email us with your wine requests, and we can fulfill the order for you, utilizing prior account data from our systems. Thank you!
