2009 Beau Vigne Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve

Estate: Beau Vigne
Region: Atlas Peak, Napa Valley, California, United States of America
Vineyard: Stags Ridge


Tasting Note:July 4, 2017

Perfect wine to open up for the 4th of July to go with the other 2009 opened from my dad's cellar.

Deep ruby core with garnet edges. Dark layered nose with lots of black cherries, blueberries, cassis, graphite, dark cocoa and more sweet spices. Heavy tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Layered palate with notes of dark gravel, blackberries, a touch blue, and solid spices. Long and lingering finish.


This was our second time trying a wine from Beau Vigne and have been very impressed so far. We drank this over a six hour period, only got better with time. Would love to try out some younger vintages.
