Our 2005 Beaulieu Vineyard® Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon expresses velvety layers of cherry, plum, rose and chocolate captured from vineyards throughout this renowned valley. Toasty oak from barrel aging adds warmth to the red fruit aromas and lingers on the palate. We captured the complexity of Napa Valley terroir by selecting grapes from several different regions known for distinctive Cabernet Sauvignon, then used the artistry of blending to create a beautifully balanced wine. Enjoy this Cabernet Sauvignon with steak grilled over grape canes or seared beef tenderloin with whole grain mustard.
Our 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon offers lush aromas of ripe blackberries and cherries, with subtle spice and chocolate notes. Smooth tannins envelope the fruity flavors, while toasty vanilla oak nuances linger on the finish. Pull the cork on this easy to enjoy wine when you pull steaks off the grill. It turns a simple barbecue into a fun celebration. Our Cabernet Sauvignon also goes great with gourmet hamburgers, lamb kebabs, pork chops and hearty pasta dishes, like mushroom lasagna.
