becklomax says "Stick with the Rutherford label" about Beaulieu Vineyard , 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon

Beaulieu Vineyards is the oldest continuing wine producer in the United States. Founded in 1900, it follows very traditional principals and produces consistently good wines. The BV Cabernet Sauvignon is likely the flagship for the company, but the wise consumer will know that it comes in three grades (excluding certain reserves) that can easily be distinguished by price and labeling. In short, if it is around $10 and says "Coastal," that's the lower end. "Napa" is around $20 and "Rutherford" is closer to $25. Treat yourself right and get the Rutherford. The grape selection and care that goes into the wine outshines the others and is on par with the BV reserve labels that go for $40 to $50 a pop.

In brief, the BV Rutherford Cabernet is very close to some of the best things that Bordeaux has to offer...but it's from California!

This is one of my favorites year after year .
just the right balance of tannins and the oak is subtle unlike alot of california cabs which hit you over the head with gobs of fruit and wood.
nice acid backbone and lingering finnish , goes great with food .

highly reccomended

angfesta says "Looking for the perfect, reasonably priced Cabernet? Here 'tis." about Beaulieu Vineyard , 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon

Excellant value, for a special cabernet. Compares and competes with cabernets in the 50-100 dollar price category. This is a wine you want to purchase by the case, and have on hand for those special occasions. Unfortunately, I found myself creating "special occasions" to delve into my supply. Try it, and see if you don't agree....

EllenStarr says "On the EllenStarr wine score this gets a 92" about Beaulieu Vineyard , 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon

Having had this wine on numerous occasions, with or without food, I find it consistenly enjoyable. It is excellent paired with fish, meat, pasta and just by itself.

Finding this wine has not been too difficult and I might recommend your local wine stores. I like to look for wines online just by doing a search (google being my favorite).

Keeping the wine at the proper temperature and then letting it breathe before drinking only adds to its flavor.

I love the fact that it is full bodied, full of flavors, complex, not too acidic and has such a nice long finish. I especially enjoy sharing this wine with good friends and family, i.e Mark McQuade, Bruce Porter and Kevin Schwanz. Reports of the wine from the above are all very favorable.
