Description

The fruit for this wine was handpicked from the heart of the Rutherford nested appellation, originally planted by Mrs. Thomas Rutherford in 1895. In the years following, Georges de Latour purchased the vineyard and named it Beaulieu Vineyard No. 3. Driven by the desire to make fruit-forward, approachable Cabernet Sauvignon, the Rutherford grapes are the backbone of our wine, and are then accentuated by commingling two vastly different yeast strains under cooler fermentation conditions. The wine is pressed and racked into 100% new French and American oak barrels of various toasting profiles, which complement the Cabernet Sauvignon characteristics during malolactic fermentation. After 24 months aging, we select the finest lots for our final blend prior to bottling.
