"No winery more thoroughly embodies the timeless appeal and seductive flavor of Napa Valley than Beringer Vineyards, Napa's benchmark producer since its establishment in 1876. Now in its third century of crafting classic wines from Napa's finest appellations and vineyards, the winery makes highly concentrated and extractive wines, with expressive, dark fruit aromas and flavors including layers of currant, berry, chocolate, mint, herb and spice . They are big and forceful with great approachability. Their Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve offers an opaque purple color, a gorgeous nose of toasty oak, and a silky, concentrated texture with unobtrusive acidity or tannin. These wines possess layered richness, remarkable balance, sweet, pure fruit, and a finish that lasts for nearly 30 seconds. Their dense and concentrated colors and flavors will continue to evolve for many years to come."
