Deep, rich nose of creme de cassis, alcohol remains strong and concentrated dark fruit. Deep maroon in the glass. Highly concentrated and bold. Densely flavored and mouth coating with rich elegant fruit and balance. A nice slight vanilla tone on the finish. Also hints of violets. Delicious! Optimal growing conditions indeed!! - Tasted at Beringer Private Reserve Tasting at the Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas 4/5/10

A massive youngster, with a fine structure and firm, chewy tannins. Dense and concentrated, only offering glimpses of what lies ahead. Shows dried currant, herb, sage and wild berry flavors. Needs time. Best from 2008 through 2014. 9,600 cases made. ... Wine Spectator. A Cabernet Sauvignon wine from California in USA. 2001 Beringer Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve 750ml

Winemaker's Notes:

When all of these cuvees are blended together, the result is the finest Cabernet Sauvignon yet made by Ed Sbragia, the 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve (11,000 cases of truly divine Cabernet nectar). For statisticians, 44% came from the Steinhauer Vineyard, 1% from Bancroft Ranch, 17% from Rancho del Oso, 3% from Chabot, 13% from St. Helena Home Ranch, 0% from Quarry Vineyard, and the balance from Marston Vineyard. As I reported last year, the 2001 is an extraordinary effort. Large-scaled yet elegant, it boasts classic notes of creme de cassis, chocolate, and smoky oak. With extraordinary voluptuousness, great concentration, tremendous intensity, and a finish that lasts nearly 60 seconds, this saturated purple-colored, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the greatest wines ever made at Beringer. It is a tribute to the brilliant Ed Sbragia. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2023.
