About the Wine
Beau Vigne flies under the radar as a “hidden gem” and small boutique winery producing only a few thousand cases a year. Fans and critics alike flock to the winery for its outstanding wines and genuine hospitality including famed critic Robert Parker who refers to Beau Vigne as “one of my favorite wineries.”
Renowned winemaker Julien Fayard uses his expertise to produce wines that express pure, terroir-driven specificities and characteristics. Julien gained his knowledge and defined his core winemaking style from working at grand Chateaux in France such as Lafite Rothschild and Smith Haut Lafitte.
Beau Vigne’s wines are highly esteemed and cherished among some of the world’s most important winemakers, and they have achieved numerous high-accolades. Today, they are considered among Napa Valley’s most acclaimed wines.
This Cabernet Sauvignon was named "Cabby" and used a yellow taxi car on the label to evoke a sense of urban adventure and excitement. The name "Cabby" is a playful nod to the word "cab" commonly associated with taxis. This playful and catchy name creates an immediate connection with people who enjoy city life and have experienced the thrill of riding in a taxi. The yellow taxi car on the label further reinforces this association, instantly bringing to mind the bustling streets of a city.
The choice of a Cabernet Sauvignon for this wine was intentional. Cabernet Sauvignon is known for its bold and robust character, which symbolizes the intensity and energy of city life. This particular Cabernet Sauvignon was crafted with a style that reflects the vibrancy and liveliness of the urban experience, making it a perfect fit for the "Cabby" name and label.
2021 Beau Vigne Cabernet Sauvignon Cabby Napa Valley is looking to be one of the vintages of the decade. Vinous Media blessed this year with a 95-98 point score, and said: "Two thousand twenty-one is a fabulous vintage in Napa Valley. That’s the good news. The not so good news is that production is down sharply, 30-50% in many cases. The wines have tremendous energy as well as finesse. In tasting, the 2021s show some of the savory intensity of other drought vintages – 2013 and 2014 come to mind – but with more aromatic explosiveness and greater inner sweetness."
Tasting Notes
87% Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 3% Petite Verdot. An exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon! This year's Cabby is a classic, pristine Cabernet. Impressively ripe with a palate displaying cassis, and chocolate tobacco and is well structured but very drinkable.
