Last Tasted 3/92 Dark garnet in color, with some amber at the edge, this wine displays a sensationally fragrant nose of mint, Oreo cookies, cedar, and sweet, jammy fruit. In the mouth, the wine reveals an earthy, full-bodied richness, a gorgeous, chewy, succulent texture, and a sweet, full-bodied, heady finish. The 1958 is a spectacular example of the Beaulieu Private Reserve Cabernet. Nearly 34 years old, it is still a formidable bottle of wine that could easily last for another decade.
About the producer
Beaulieu Vineyard remains one of the most historically important wineries in Napa Valley. It is it one of the longest continuous running wineries in the region, as one of the few that kept operating throughout Prohibition.
