Beaulieu Vineyard (BV) Tapestry Reserve Red Blend 2017

From Beaulieu Vineyard (BV), the Tapestry Reserve Red Blend 2017 is a classic Napa Valley Reserve wine, handcrafted from the finest grapes of the vintage and shaped by the artistry of blending five Bordeaux-heritage grape varieties grown within the Napa Valley. Drawing on more than 100 years of winemaking, it brings together state-of-the-art technology with gentle, traditional methods to enhance the expression of its vineyard terroir.

Perfumed and expressive, this signature red blend is built around Cabernet Sauvignon, contributing wild bramble berry character with hints of blackberry, Marionberry, black raspberry and dark plum, alongside dark chocolate, mocha, violet and lavender. Merlot adds mouthwatering black plum and black cherry with soft, round tannins for a velvety-rich texture. Malbec brings freshness with notes of cassis and rhubarb, while Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot deepen the profile with savoury spice and lifted nuances of subtle black liquorice, espresso bean, nutmeg and allspice. Well-integrated oak character adds richness and depth, finishing soft and smooth with rich tannins. Enjoyable in its youth, it also has the potential to age gracefully with additional bottle ageing for the next 10-20 years.
