Beaulieu Vineyard 1997 Clone 6 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Clone 6
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Beaulieu Vineyard / Napa Valley

Very tasty and large in scale, it sports a huge nose of dark plum and heavy cedar, along with cinnamon and vanilla accents wrapped in very toasty oak. Very dark fruit with licorice shadings and an elegant, supple mouthfeel add to the appeal. The dark flavors and heavy toast continue on the long finish, which doesn’t want to quit.
