Beringer
Written by Cori Trandafir
Established in 1876, Beringer is nearing 150 years of continuous excellence in the wine hotbed known as Napa Valley. Now, before getting to know more about the brand, we think it’s best to lead with the fact that Beringer is the first and only winery to hold the #1 spot in Wine Spectator Magazine’s wine of the year in both the red and white wine categories. If that isn’t prestigious, we don’t know what is.
Awards aside, Beringer has curated and carefully cultivated a fantastic selection of wines that adhere to the standard products you’d expect from a winery but are anything but. For those with more exclusive palates, the brand’s Private Reserve collection holds their more sumptuous wines that are worth every penny. That’s not to say that you can’t enjoy a fine wine from any of their other collections, but a little bit of refinement and exclusivity is a welcome touch.
Speaking of which, we’re upping the ante with Beringer’s 2016 8th Maker Cabernet Sauvignon, which the brand describes so beautifully we just couldn’t outdo them:
“A rich deep garnet color leads to aromas and flavors of dark fruit such as blackberries, black cherry and wild mountain blueberries. Full bodied and plush, with fine grained tannins, great balance and an appealing freshness. Stunning to present today, those with the patience to cellar for a few years will find the wine continually evolving, leading to even more enjoyment.”
