Beaulieu Vineyard 2020 Tapestry Reserve Red Wine – 1.5L Magnum

Rare Magnum Format – Napa Valley, California

🍷 Tasting Notes & Product Description

Beaulieu Vineyard 2020 Tapestry Reserve Red Wine (1.5L Magnum) is a luxurious, limited-production Bordeaux-style blend that masterfully weaves together five noble grape varieties from Napa Valley’s most prestigious AVAs. Rarely seen in magnum format, this collector’s release showcases the elegance and complexity of BV’s French winemaking heritage with a New World twist.

🏅 Blend & Style

Crafted from 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Malbec, 10% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Petit Verdot, this red blend is full-bodied, aromatic, and layered — a true "tapestry" of varietal expression. Each grape brings something unique to the glass:

• Cabernet Sauvignon: Delivers structure, power, and wild black fruit character – blackberry, Marionberry, dark plum, and black raspberry.
• Merlot: Adds plushness and velvety texture with notes of black cherry and black plum.
• Malbec: Offers brightness, acidity, and a burst of cassis and rhubarb.
• Cabernet Franc & Petit Verdot: Lend savory spice, floral tones, black licorice, espresso, nutmeg, and allspice.

This symphonic blend is aged for 20 months in 60% new French oak barrels, enhancing its depth with subtle notes of mocha, vanilla, and toasty oak.

🌿 Palate & Finish

The 2020 Tapestry opens with vivid aromatics of dark berries, chocolate, lavender, and violets, supported by a silky texture and robust tannins. Mid-palate richness and lively acidity give way to a generous finish that’s structured yet approachable. The wine's balance and finesse are evident in every sip, with potential to evolve gracefully over the next 10–20 years.

🍽️ Food Pairing Suggestions

• Grilled lamb chops with rosemary
• Filet mignon or ribeye with mushroom demi-glace
• Aged cheddar, Comté, or blue cheese
• Braised short ribs or duck confit

Serve at 60–64°F and decant for 30–60 minutes before enjoying.

📅 Vintage Insight – 2020 Napa Valley

Despite being a challenging vintage due to low yields, 2020 produced fruit with exceptional concentration and balance. A warm, dry season and late spring rains created smaller berries with thick skins, ideal for bold reds. The result is a Tapestry vintage of great intensity, richness, and freshness, built for collectors and connoisseurs alike.

📍 Vineyard Sourcing

• Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from Rutherford, Calistoga, Oakville, and St. Helena
• Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Malbec from estate vineyards in Rutherford
• Cabernet Franc from cool Sonoma Valley and warm Calistoga, adding brightness and fruit purity
