1999 Beaulieu Vineyard "Signet Collection Beauzeaux" Napa Valley Red Blend

Label Condition: Lightly Scuffed Label
Beaulieu Vineyard is a foundational Napa estate, established in 1900 in Rutherford by Georges and Fernande de Latour, French immigrants who named the property “beau lieu,” or “beautiful place.” From the outset, BV helped shape the region’s future. Georges de Latour introduced phylloxera-resistant rootstock from Europe, strengthening not only his own vineyards but the viability of Napa Valley viticulture more broadly. The winery’s continuity through Prohibition proved equally defining. By producing sacramental wine under license, BV remained operational while most peers closed, emerging after repeal with expanded scale and market presence. A major quality leap came in 1938 with André Tchelistcheff, whose influence helped establish modern Napa winemaking practices and elevated BV Cabernet to benchmark status. By mid-century, BV ranked among Napa’s leading producers, with wines served at the White House; its Georges de Latour Private Reserve remains a longstanding reference point for Rutherford Cabernet.

Label Condition: Lightly Scuffed Label
Founded in 1900 by Georges de Latour, Beaulieu Vineyard is one of Napa Valley’s foundational estates, helping shape the region’s reputation through its pioneering viticulture and the influence of legendary winemaker André Tchelistcheff. The Signet Collection was created to explore distinctive vineyard sites, grape varieties, and small-lot bottlings beyond the winery’s flagship Cabernet Sauvignon program, showcasing the diversity of California terroir. The Ensemble bottling drew inspiration from the Rhône Valley, blending varieties suited to California’s warm days and cool evenings, with an emphasis on balance, complexity, and vineyard character rather than sheer power.
