About this bottle
Beaulieu Vineyard (BV) Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 is the winery's flagship bottling, named for the French founder who established BV in Rutherford in 1900. First released in the 1930s, it's one of the wines credited with putting Napa Valley Cabernet on the map internationally. The 2017 shows a deep, dense color with aromas of blackberry, cassis, and dark chocolate layered with cedar and dried herb. On the palate it's concentrated and structured, with black cherry, mocha, and toasty oak carrying through firm, well-integrated tannins to a long finish built for aging. This is a wine for collectors and special occasions rather than a weeknight pour.
How to drink Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
Decant it for at least 45 minutes to an hour — this is a wine built for aging and it benefits from real air time when young. Serve around 62-65°F alongside a well-marbled steak or rack of lamb, and save it for an occasion that matches the bottle.

Questions about this bottle
How long should this wine decant?
Give it 45 minutes to an hour of air, longer than a typical Cabernet — it's built for aging and drinks tighter than the fruit alone suggests when first opened.
What food pairs well with this Cabernet?
A well-marbled steak or rack of lamb gives the tannins and dark fruit something substantial to work against; this isn't a wine for light fare.
What makes Georges de Latour Private Reserve historically significant?
It's BV's flagship Cabernet, first released in the 1930s and one of the early wines that helped establish Napa Valley's reputation for serious Cabernet Sauvignon on the world stage.
