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.”
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.
The fruit is sourced from exceptional sites in Rutherford, Yountville, and Oakville.
Aging: 20 months in French oak barrels, 50-60% New Oak
Tasting Notes
An inviting floral note in the aroma leads to beautiful cherry and berry flavors and an agreeable, moderately tannic texture in this full-bodied but approachable wine. It shows more complexity with each sip, and ends with a lingering finish. Best from 2026–2036.
Critic Reviews
The ‘Romeo’ bottling for Beau Vigne is the counterpoint to ‘Juliet,’ offering more muscularity and broad-shouldered tannins. Alluring blackberry and plum fruits mingle with toasty oak, dried herbs, and violet florals. Medium to full-bodied, it has a core of creamy fruit, making it a stylish and easy-drinking Cabernet with enough heft to satisfy those who love powerful Napa Cabernets. The fruit is sourced from exceptional sites in Rutherford, Yountville, and Oakville, and the wine is aged for approximately 20 months in 50-60% new French oak. ~95 Decanter
