2007 Caravina Cabernet
Release Price: $55.00

"Readers looking for value in Napa Valley reds need look no further than Seavey's 2007 Caravina. Last year I wrote that it was the finest second wine they had yet made, and now that it's in bottle, I can reiterate - it is a sensational effort. Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and aged 19 months in French oak casks, this 525-case cuvee is a sleeper of the vintage." Rating: 94. Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2008.
2006 Caravina Cabernet
750ml Price: $55.00

"The 2006 Caravina (95.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 4.5% Petit Verdot) is also surprisingly soft for a wine from this vintage, with melted tannins and lots of scorched earth, blackberry, and cassis notes. With full body and a silky suppleness, it should drink well for a decade as well....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.” Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2008.
2005 Caravina Cabernet
750ml Price: $65.00

""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.
2004 Caravina Cabernet
750ml Price: Contact Winery

"The 2004 Caravina is an up-front, fragrant effort displaying notes of cedar, black currants, white chocolate, coffee, and spice box. Supple-textured with gorgeous levels of fruit, medium body, and a silky finish, it should drink well for 12 years. It is typical of the open-knit, precocious 2004 vintage. Seavey is a top-flight source for long-lived Cabs. Rating: 91." - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
2003 Caravina Cabernet
750ml Price: Sold Out

"This beautiful offering exhibits notes of sweet Chinese black tea intermixed with hints of white chocolate, black currants, and dried herbs. Elegant and finesse-styled, it offers outstanding richness, a big, scorched earth, Graves-like note intermixed with black currants, plums, chocolate, and earth. The stylish, charming, seductive should drink well up to 2021. Rating: 91." - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
2002 Caravina Cabernet
750ml Price: $75.00

“The 2002 Caravina exhibits more concentration than the 2001. This 2002 reveals sweet tannin along with big, full throttle, dense, black currant, loamy soil, chocolate and vanilla flavors.  Full-bodied, rich and impressive, this is no ordinary second wine.  Anticipated maturity up to 2019.”  Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
2001 Caravina Cabernet
750ml Price: $65.00

"The 2001 Caravina reveals some rustic, hard tannin in the finish, but there is a beautiful bouquet of black fruits intermixed with tobacco leaf, loamy soil, and roasted meats. Medium-bodied and ruggedly tannic, it is capable of lasting for a decade. There is a lot going on here." - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
2000 Caravina Cabernet
750ml Price: Contact Winery

"The 2000 Caravina (800 cases of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon) has more sweetness and plump fruit than the 1999. This elegant, refined, and delicious medium to full-bodied Cabernet should be consumed during its first 10-12 years of life." - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
1999 Caravina Cabernet
750ml Price: $85.00

Seavey Vineyard’s first estate-produced Caravina, the 1999, was made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon with opaque ruby/purple color, lush aromas of cherries and prunes, freshness and focus, medium body, good balance of oak and acidity and well-integrated tannins that should allow it to age well for 15 or more years.
