About The Wine

“One of my favorite wineries, Beau Vigne’s Vineyard sits at a high elevation in the southern Napa Valley, back Soda Canyon Road, overlooking the Pritchard Hill Gap as well as the Stagecoach Vineyard. The AVA for these wines is Atlas Peak and the soils are all volcanic origin. This winery is currently on a qualitative roll.” ~Robert Parker

Renowned winemaker Julien Fayard uses his expertise to produce wines that express pure, terroir-driven specificities and characteristics. Julien gained his knowledge and defined his core winemaking style from working at grand Chateaux in France such as Lafite Rothschild and Smith Haut Lafitte.

Beau Vigne flies under the radar as a “hidden gem” and small boutique winery producing only a few thousand cases a year. Fans and critics alike flock to the winery for its outstanding wines and genuine hospitality including famed critic Robert Parker who refers to Beau Vigne as “one of my favorite wineries.” 

HERO is a multi-vineyard / multi-AVA blend with one sole focus. ‘Cabernet Sauvignon sites that have chalky soils’ This focus adds a memorable concentration and minerality to the wine.

Its vineyards have that benefit from cool mornings and warm, sunny afternoons. Sun orientations that optimize the expression of the variety. Vineyard sites In Napa Valley & Sonoma Valley that vary from 150 to 2000 feet above sea level.

Beau Vigne’s wines are highly esteemed and cherished among some of the world’s most important winemakers, and they have achieved numerous high-accolades.

Today, they are considered among Napa Valley’s most acclaimed wines.
