Tasting Notes
2022 #1 Value of the Year from Wine Spectator. Fresh, direct and focused, with red currant and cherry coulis notes that race through, dotted with savory, floral and tobacco accents.

Vineyard & Varietal Information
Beaulieu Vineyard’s roots lie in a 4-acre estate in the heart of Rutherford, purchased for $12,000 in 1900. Its owners, Georges and Fernande de Latour, were looking to continue their cream of tartar business, scraping off potassium tartrate crystals from the inside of wine barrels. Over the years, however, the de Latours expanded their property, starting Beaulieu in 1904. Today, it is one of Napa’s oldest and most venerable wine estates.
Now owned by Treasury Estates, Beaulieu spans 200-plus Rutherford acres across three ranches, plus other estates in Carneros and Calistoga.
