About Beringer Vineyards
Founded in 1876, Beringer is the oldest continuously operating vineyard in Napa Valley. Head winemaker Laurie Hook directs operations at 14 different vineyards which produce almost as many varieties of wine. Decadently rich Cabernet Sauvignons, lush Merlots and rich, exotic Chardonnays are the standout wines at Beringer.

88-90 Points | International Wine Cellar , May/June 1998
Deep ruby-red. Floral, spicy aroma of dark berries and violet. Supple and sweet, but juicy and nicely delineated. Offers lovely intensity of flavor and plenty of nuance. Finishes with even, dusty tannins and notes of spice, vanilla and toast.
