Critical Acclaim: Please Note: Very limited and obviously getting better as it ages, because Robert Parker re-rated from 96 POINTS to NOW 97 POINTS!
Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate Tasting Notes: “Blended of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot and 3 % Merlot, all coming mainly from the Rutherford AVA, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve Georges de Latour has a deep garnet-purple color and nose of baked black berries, dried mulberries and preserved plums with hints of allspice, cardamom, lavender and cigar box. Full-bodied, rich and expressive even today, it has a firm, chewy backbone and bags of freshness, promising a long life and much more to come with careful cellaring. 6,600 cases were made.” THE WINE ADVOCATE 97 POINTS
Recognized as James Suckling’s Top 100 Napa and Sonoma Wines of 2017
James Suckling Tasting Notes: “Extremely complex aromas of currant, coffee, spearmint, Thai basil and sandalwood. Full body, firm and chewy tannins yet linear and exciting. Just a baby. Fantastic structure here. Better in 2020.” JAMES SUCKLING 96 POINTS

Winery Notes: We hand-selected grapes from the finest Cabernet Sauvignon vines from the western bench of the Rutherford AVA in our iconic BV Ranches No. 1 and No. 2, originally planted by Georges de Latour in the early 1900s. The fruit was hand-picked and optically sorted at the winery to ensure the highest quality selection. These chosen vines are deeply rooted in the well-draining alluvial fan soils of Rutherford, considered one of the finest regions of Napa Valley for Cabernet Sauvignon.
