What to Expect

California's Napa Valley has been a source of world-class Cabernet Sauvignon for well over a century. Its warm climate and varied terrain allows for many styles of wine. One thread that runs through almost all the Cabernet based wines from Napa is their lush, ripe full-bodied feel and rich flavors of currant and berry. Wines from the valley floor, particularly around Rutherford, are famed for a dusty quality and those coming from the hillsides surrounding the valley, Mt. Veeder, Diamond Mountain and Howell Mountain for example, tend to be a little leaner with more obvious structural elements.

Winemakers Notes

Since 1981, Beringer winemaster Ed Sbragia has created the Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon by combining wines from a handful of selected vineyards for a complex flavor profile that layers the fruits of each vineyard's unique soils and climate. In the 1992 vintage, he combined the wines from these vineyards, which had been separately vinted and aged.
