While Napa has its share of cult wineries, few can boast the kind of history Beaulieu Vineyard has. Established in 1900 by Georges de Latour and his wife Fernande, it was one of the pioneers in Napa to use imported, phylloxera-resistant rootstock as the disease ravaged vineyards all over California.
One of its winemakers was the legendary Andre Tchelistcheff– the dean of American winemaking – who was responsible for establishing the powerful, fruit-forward styles that came to define some of the best cabernet sauvignons in California. Since 1940, Beaulieu wines have been served at most White House dinners.
The winery’s current and fifth chief winemaker is Trevor Durling, who, at just 37, is already entering his 18th vintage in the industry. We speak to the native Californian about embracing modernity and new horizons for the winery.
