The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Clone 4 exhibits a deeper pigmented ruby/purple color, sweet creme de cassis fruit, vanillin and graphite, and a medium to full-bodied, rich, concentrated mouthfeel. Beaulieu Vineyard (or BV) is definitely returning to the great form they possessed in the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s. This has been noticeable since the 2007s were released.
