Beautifully dark and opaque, Beaulieu Vineyard’s 2022 Clone 4 Cabernet Sauvignon reflects a fine ruby ring at its crown. Lush and savory aromas of cassis, blackberry, balsam fir, and mountain granite herald this wine’s stature, while its palate presents the bona fides of classic Napa Valley Cabernet. Polished by well-integrated, even tannins, rich flavors of blackberry, bing and sweet coral cherry sparkle with the cocoa-powder qualities of Rutherford Dust and are exalted through the finish by dazzling acidity. Age this lavish, wonderful wine for up to fifteen years or enjoy it now with a perfectly seared filet mignon, Mongolian pork chop, or parmesan-roasted cauliflower bites.
