2022 Maestro Beaurouge

Black pepper, sea salt, and mineral top notes skip across the nose of Beaulieu Vineyard’s 2022 Beaurouge like stones across water, scattering into a pool of rich plum, fig, and dark chocolate caramel aromas. A lustrous aubergine color, this smooth blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah is bright with red fruit; juicy raspberry compote and dried cranberry flavors stud its palate of rich, dark chocolate bark. A barrel-wood shot of espresso chases these flavors through the prolonged, dense finish, which is caught in the clutch of firm, tenacious tannins. Enjoy this lively wine with grilled bison burgers, sausages, and charred broccolini.
