Beaulieu Vineyard 2019 Georges de Latour Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
4598Product Details
(100 JS) #1 World Wine of the Year 2022 . Wow! The aromas to this are really exceptional, with a tangerine edge to the blackcurrants, graphite, lead pencil, flowers and wet earth. It changes all the time. So expressive and refined. Full-bodied with great intensity and depth of fruit. The ultra-fine tannins display millions of layers. The texture on the palate is superb and lasts for minutes. This is the new 1974 George de Latour, which was a legend. Real Napa Valley red here. Drinkable now, to understand it, but truly great in five to six years and onwards. Benchmark.
( 97 WE) Another stunning vintage of this classic wine,
blended with 9% Petit Verdot, this wine is dark and brooding in black cherry,
cassis and currant, with a rich nose of baking spice. Lengthy and generous in
tannin, it shows a backbone of ageworthy structure and complexity, with a
lasting thread of dark chocolate. Enjoy best from 2029–2039.
