- 92 Punkte JAMES SUCKLING: „A firm and silky red with blackberries and currants, as well as iodine and redwood undertones. Medium-bodied, creamy and delicious. Shows real Napa character. 84% cabernet sauvignon with syrah, petite sirah, merlot, touriga nacional, cabernet franc and charbono. Drink or hold.“

- 90 Punkte Robert Parkers WINE ADVOCATE, Lisa Perrotti-Brown: „A kitchen sink blend of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Syrah, 4% Petite Sirah, 3% Merlot, 2% Touriga Nacional, 2% Cab Franc and 1% Charbono, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley sports a deep garnet-purple color and exuberant notes of wild blueberries, ripe blackberries and crushed blackcurrants with touches of fruitcake, cigar box, menthol and spice box. The palate is medium to full-bodied, coating the mouth with soft-textured black fruit and spice cake flavors, supported by a lively backbone and finishing with a minty kick. Nicely done! 53,540 cases were made.“


- 90 Punkte WIN ENTHUSIAST, Virginie Boone: „With small doses of Syrah, Petite Sirah and Touriga Nacional, this well-made red is smooth and widely appealing. Black cherry, vanilla and blackberry flavors are juicy and lengthy, with an impressive backbone of freshness.“

 

- 17+ Punkte JANCIS ROBINSON: „Meaty nose plus succulent blackberry juice on the palate. Subtle sweet-spice and leathery notes on the finish. Wonderful sense of place – this has stars and stripes running right through the middle. That beefy note returns on the finish adding much-appreciated complexity.“

Notizen des Weinguts: For more than 100 years, Beaulieu Vineyard has been setting the standard for rich, classic Napa Valley wines. Our legacy honors the marriage between state-of-the-art technology and gentle, traditional winemaking methods, a combination that enhances the expression of our remarkable vineyard terroir. From Calistoga in the north to Carneros in the south, our Beaulieu Vineyard Napa Valley wines reflect this region's diverse terroir with classic varietal character. Tasting Notes The 2019 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has a bouquet of dark red berry fruit, supported by briary cherry, and tea leaf herbaceous notes. The palate follows through nicely with juicy and bright strawberry preserves, black raspberry, black cherry, and cola, supported by delicate hints of mint, mocha and dark chocolate. The tannins are smooth and round offering a plush texture and mouthfeel, with a classic balance and structure that complements the character of this wine. Well integrated baking spice notes of vanilla bean, cinnamon, and ginger from the toasted oak barrels seamlessly compliment the lively berry fruit aromas and flavors leading to a long savory finish with focused acidity. This crowd-pleasing Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is incredibly drinkable now, upon release, and can age for many years to come. Vintage The 2019 harvest started one to two weeks later than previous years due to February rains. Spring continued to be wet with some rain during flowering, followed by cool temperatures that allowed the grapes to mature gradually. Most grapes ripened at lower sugars, thanks to the extended, cool growing season, and winemakers were pleased with the full flavors, fresh acidity, and superb balance of the 2019 fruit. The resulting crop showed a modest yield with a slightly more compact structure and extract than in previous years. Vineyard We sourced the majority of the Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley’s Rutherford, Calistoga and St. Helena appellations. The diverse soils and microclimates, as well as the various clones of Cabernet Sauvignon and cultivation techniques, contributed to this wine’s complex flavor profile. The balance of the blend was grown both in our estate vineyards and other quality vineyards of Napa Valley. Winemaking After the grapes were destemmed and crushed, we fermented the must in stainless steel tanks until dry. We then pressed the skins and gently transferred the freshly fermented wine to 60-gallon oak barrels for malolactic fermentation and 18 months of aging. Prior to bottling, we blended several varieties with the Cabernet Sauvignon to add complexity and plushness to the wine’s mid-palate. This also added plenty of finesse to the lingering finish and enhanced the flavor and aroma profile of this beautiful wine.
