1970
From Beaulieu Vineyard (BV)
Historic winery known for its Cabernet Sauvignon and other varieties.
The 1970 BV Beaumont Pinot Noir opens with an intense nose of leather, dark fruit, and hints of soy sauce, signaling its maturity and complexity. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet graceful, with layers of dried cherry, plum, and earthy undertones. The wine’s age has brought forth tertiary notes of forest floor, tobacco, and subtle spice, while maintaining a core of vibrant acidity. The finish is long and persistent, marked by silky tannins and a lingering echo of savory and fruit-driven flavors. This Pinot Noir showcases remarkable depth and evolution, offering a compelling tasting experience for those who appreciate mature, classic Napa Valley wines.[1]
