"It takes Rutherford dust to make great Cabernet," said legendary winemaker André Tchelistcheff. The 2005 Beaulieu Vineyard Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon gives proof to his statement with rich dark fruit character woven with enticing anise, cocoa, licorice, loam and dried-herb notes.
"The first impression is of sweet fruit, and then the wine expands across the palate into deeper, riper layers of berries and cherries," said Winemaker Jeffrey Stambor, as he swirled and sipped the wine. "Well-integrated oak character heightens the aromas and laces the long, fruit-imbued finish. This richly-textured Cabernet is at once approachable and age-worthy."
"Here is proof that not all classic Cabernets from Napa come with three-digit price tags. For, while this one is not as compelling as its mate, it is going to provide more early drinking pleasure, and the keen focus to its fruit and the rich, milk chocolate and ripe cherry sweetness tinged with hints of loam and sassafras in its flavors are precise portrayals of Napa Valley Cabernet in its most inviting guise. Nothing at this price compares."
