Lorsque André Tchelistcheff a rejoint le vignoble Beaulieu en 1938, il a goûté le vin privé de la famille de Latour du millésime 1936. Ce vin à base de cabernet sauvignon était si particulier que Tchelistcheff a insisté pour qu'il soit mis en bouteille et vendu comme le produit phare de la cave. En 1940, Beaulieu Vineyard a commercialisé le premier millésime de Private Reserve et l'a nommé en l'honneur de son fondateur. Le vin ainsi obtenu est devenu le premier cabernet sauvignon de Georges de Latour Private Reserve, un vin qui était destiné à devenir le premier cabernet "culte" de la Napa Valley. En plus de 70 ans, Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon est devenu la référence des cabernets de la Napa Valley et l'un des vins américains les plus collectionnés.

Vinous

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Georges de Latour is outrageously beautiful. A wine of statuesque build and class, the 2021 represents another major step forward for BV. Black cherry, plum, spice, new leather, menthol, mocha and gravel soar from the glass. This is an especially refined vintage for this flagship wine. Here, too, there is plenty of tannin, but it is not anywhere near as perceptible as it was in the past. Shorter macerations and gentler overall winemaking, including fewer lots vinified in barrel, have elevated the Georges meaningfully. - Antonio Galloni

Dunnuck

Lastly, the flagship 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Georges De Latour Private Reserve is in the same ballpark as the 2019 and is an incredibly elegant yet concentrated 2021 that does everything right. Purple-hued, with ample cassis, wild sage, graphite, and darker chocolate-like aromatics, it picks up a Graves-like gravelly earth character with air and is full-bodied, has ripe, polished tannins, beautiful overall balance, and a great finish. As with many of the top 2021s, it s a touch reserved and closed and needs 4-5 years of bottle age, but will drink well for 30 years.
