Tasting Notes
The Beaulieu Vineyard (BV) Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a majestic bouquet of ripe cassis, black cherry, and wild blueberry, lifted by fragrant notes of crushed violets, fresh mint, and wild sage. Sourced from the historic benchlands of Rutherford, the palate is exceptionally concentrated and full-bodied, delivering vibrant layers of dark chocolate, espresso, graphite, and sweet cedar wood spice. Its defining feature is the famous, fine-grained "Rutherford Dust" tannins—powdery, supple, and beautifully integrated—which provide a seamless, cocoa-like texture and a remarkably long, persistent finish. Balanced by fresh, vibrant acidity, this legendary Napa Valley flagship offers immediate elegance while boasting decades of cellar-worthy potential.
Winery History
Founded in 1900 by French immigrant Georges de Latour and his wife Fernande—who famously exclaimed "Beau lieu!" ("Beautiful place!") upon seeing the land—Beaulieu Vineyard (BV) quickly established itself as a founding pillar of Napa Valley winemaking. The estate achieved legendary status in 1938 when de Latour hired legendary Russian-born enologist André Tchelistcheff, the "father of modern California winemaking," whose innovative cellar hygiene, temperature-controlled fermentation, and French oak aging elevated BV's wines to global acclaim. Famously surviving Prohibition by selling altar wine to the Catholic Church, BV went on to launch its iconic flagship Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon in 1936—California’s first true "cult" wine—solidifying a world-class legacy that has graced White House state dinners and global tables for over a century.
