Tasting notes
The 2011 Reserve Tapestry is another standout from Beaulieu in a very challenging year. Bright floral notes lead to tobacco, mint, licorice and pine, all in a brilliant, mid-weight wine long on minerality, focus and pure brilliance. This is a very strong showing.

Although the 2011 Tapestry Reserve reveals the vintage’s lighter style, it possesses sweet tannins, a ripe, medium-bodied style, and hints of licorice and forest floor. Beaulieu Vineyard (or BV) is definitely returning to the great form they possessed in the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s. This has been noticeable since the 2007s were released. Tel. (800) 264-6918
