Beaulieu Vineyard BV Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 1995

Beaulieu Vineyard hand selected grapes from the finest Cabernet Sauvignon vines from the western bench of the Rutherford AVA in their iconic BV Ranches No. 1 and No. 2, originally planted by Georges de Latour in the early 1900s.

The focus was on clonal selections (6, 4, 169, 7, and 8), which yield small berries with the high skin-to-juice ratio needed to make intense, long-lived wines. The fruit was handpicked and optically sorted once it arrived at the winery in order to ensure the highest quality selection.

These specifically chosen vines are deeply rooted in the well-draining alluvial fan soils of Rutherford, considered one of the finest regions in the Napa Valley for Cabernet Sauvignon.
