"BV is arguably one of the most improved estates in Napa Valley over the last few years. Today’s wines offer terrific energy in a style that marries textural resonances with vibrancy." - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
If you're looking for sure bets in Napa Cabernet, you can't do much better than Beaulieu Vineyards in an outstanding vintage, and this trio from the monumental 2021 and 2023 vintages is a must-see for any avid fan or collector. The 2023 BV Napa Valley Cabernet cements its place as one of the category's great value propositions. A double 94-point gem for under $40, it's "succulent, layered and generous ... An excellent release of this wine with all the traditional hallmarks," as noted by James Suckling.
Legendary Napa pedigree and a benchmark vintage come together to form a top-tier overachiever in the 2021 BV Tapestry Reserve. Often known as "Baby Latour", it's a lovely precursor to the estate's iconic flagship wine, at a fraction of the price. Not only that, but the 2021 also boasts some impressive accolades, led by a 96-point score from James Suckling, who declares it "one of the best I have had." The vintage's outstanding growing conditions resulted in a wine with "excellent length and serious tension" between plush fruit and precisely executed structure. Jeb Dunnuck declares, "It's medium to full-bodied, with a layered, elegant mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. Bravo to the team at Beaulieu for delivering this level of quality."
Following on the heels of star-studded vintages like 2018 and 2019, the 2021 BV Georges de Latour Reserve is "outrageously beautiful, writes Galloni. "A wine of statuesque build and class, the 2021 represents another major step forward for BV." It offers collectors a level of sophistication and elegance that simply adds one more dimension to one of the world's great Cabernets. With three 98-point scores carrying the critical line, the 2021 "does everything right" according to Jeb Dunnuck, and avid collectors of this Napa legend will be thrilled to have it in their cellars. |
