The notably cool growing season gave our 2010 Beaulieu Vineyard Reserve Tapestry very elegant and aromatic dark-red fruit character. Hints of sun-warmed roses weave through cherry liqueur and briary blackberry notes, which come from the wine’s core of Cabernet Sauvignon.

The plush, midpalate texture and dark chocolate–cherry truffle nuances reveal a generous blending of Merlot, while Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec add the rose, forest loam and graphite notes.
