2018 Beringer Bancroft Ranch Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
Description
Description
When Beringer first planted the vineyard, the distinctive character of the grapes was immediately evident, and it was selected as a regular part of the Private Reserve blend beginning in the 1993 vintage. Robust tannins and an earthy finish make this a superlative display of Howell Mountain fruit.

“Intense aromas and flavors of ripe blackcurrant, dried lavender, bitter chocolate and charred bark. Hints of dried citrus zest, too. It’s medium-bodied with firm, sleek tannins and fresh acidity. Subtle caramel notes at the end. ” - James Suckling, January 2021

“The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Bancroft Ranch is deep, powerful and beautifully layered in the glass. Iron, cured meats, rose petal, mint, mocha, licorice and spice all build as this sumptuous Cabernet gradually reveals its many charms. There is plenty of Howell Mountain grip, but impeccable overall balance too. This is such a distinctive Cabernet.” - Antonio Galloni, March 2021

Mark Beringer - Winemaker
Mark Beringer, great-great-grandson of Beringer Vineyards' founding brother Jacob Beringer, was immersed in wine from the moment he was born in the heart of the Napa Valley. As the direct descendant to Beringer's first winemaker and one of the most iconic family names in Napa Valley wine history, he knew from a young age that he would follow in the footsteps of his ancestors. As a young man he spent many hours working in his family's wine store in Saint Helena, expanding his knowledge of wine as well as gaining an appreciation for wines outside of the famous region he has always called home.
