Another ripe yet balanced, opulent wine under this label, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature Series Reserve is 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc. Ripe plums, cassis, tobacco, and chalky minerality all define the aromatics, and it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, beautiful tannins, and a rich, concentrated, yet surprisingly graceful and balanced style. This big, sexy, hedonistic bomb of a wine should evolve for 15 years or more.

A rich yet perfumed nose, full of blackberries, dark chocolate, violets and some pencil lead. A round, concentrated and juicy palate, with volume and fullness and plenty of blackberries to load the firm tannins. Drink or hold.

Beau Vigne's 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve delivers classic cassis notes accented by hints of baking spices. A blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon with 3% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc, it's full-bodied, even a bit chocolaty-ripe, with supple tannins and a long, velvety finish. It's a fine effort.
