About Beaulieu Vineyard
Beaulieu Vineyard is renowned for its rich history and innovative winemaking, particularly under the guidance of legendary winemaker André Tchelistcheff, who crafted the iconic Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon. Visitors can enjoy unique tasting experiences, including the exclusive Collector's Cabernet Journey and the retro-inspired Vinyl Room Experience, all set against the stunning backdrop of Napa Valley.
Why Visit Beaulieu Vineyard
The Cabernet Clone Expression tasting ($85) pours wines from different Cabernet clones to show how genetics shift flavor in grapes grown feet apart. It's a rare chance to understand what clonal selection actually does, not just read about it on a tech sheet.
- André Tchelistcheff joined as winemaker in 1938 and shaped Napa Cabernet for decades
- Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon debuted in the 1930s
- The Vinyl Room Experience ($20) pairs retro vinyl records with wine
- Cabernet Clone Expression tasting ($85) compares clonal variation in the glass

The Setting
The Vinyl Room sits inside the historic Rutherford property where visitors drop needles on records from Fleetwood Mac and Culture Club while tasting wine. Outside, the original estate buildings date back over a century, anchoring a campus that stretches along Highway 29. The property carries the weight of its 125 years without trying to modernize away the legacy.
The Tasting Experience
The Vinyl Room Experience runs $20 and leans into nostalgia with a turntable and album covers from multiple decades. For deeper pours, the Cabernet Collector's Experience ($150) pulls library wines and older vintages of Georges de Latour Private Reserve for collectors who want to track how the wine ages. The Hewitt Vineyard Cabernet Tasting ($75) focuses on a single Rutherford site, while Discover Beaulieu ($55) covers 125 years of winemaking in an hour.

Cabernet Clone Expression
$85Embark on a unique tasting journey exploring the intricate and fascinating story of our Cabernet Sauvignon Clones. Clones are grape “twins” with subtle differences that create unique flavors and characteristics. Through a 14-year study with UC Davis, we discovered how special clones like Clone 4, Clone 6, and Clone 169, are perfectly suited to our Rutherford terroir. This exclusive tasting highlights how these clones shape every individual glass and then come together harmoniously in the Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon. Please note, seating for this tasting will be communal.
