Tasting Notes
On the nose, aromas of white flowers and crisp green apple are your first hints at the refreshing, crisp qualities of this wine. A bright core of acidity gives way to zesty citrus flavors on the palate, all accompanied by a touch of grapefruit. A long, refreshing finish bookends the experience and will have you reaching for your next sip. Serve chilled.Technical Information

Winemaking
Our winemakers craft Winery Exclusive wines to honor our winery heritage as well as to highlight our own viticultural explorations. Each of the wines in this collection are produced in limited quantities, showcasing a vineyard, varietal or growing region. Styled to be enjoyed upon release, these unique offerings may vary by vintage and reflect the quality, history and winemaking expertise that Beringer has been known for since 1876.Vintage
The 2021 season was joyous and welcomed after the challenges of previous vintages, producing exceptionally high-quality fruit, some of the best in recent years. Rain early in the year led to almost no notable precipitation for the rest of the season, providing an ideal environment for grapes to flower, bloom, and set in early spring, with budbreak early in April, followed by flowering and bloom in May. The summer saw early and even ripening throughout the valley, with veraison appearing in early July. Low yields (in part due to drought conditions), created fruit that is intensely flavored and smaller in berry size. One of the earliest starts, harvest began with white wine grapes coming in towards late July, while red wine grapes arrived about a month later, at the end of August. With optimal ripening and taste, our winemakers took their time bringing grapes in, crafting wines of fantastic character, with amazing color extraction, aromatic intensity, tremendous balance, and structure, that are equally lush and fruity. A tremendous year to taste the nuances and terroir distinction from around the valley.Vineyard
Our winery exclusive collection is crafted from our premier vineyards around the Napa Valley. Most of the fruit in this release comes from the Valley floor, with a concentration near our Saint Helena home. You’ll taste the benefits this bestows on the fruit in the crisp acidity and bright citrus flavors.
