Beringer Bros Description
Beringer’s latest offering pays tribute to the winery’s very beginning. 150 years ago, brothers Jacob and Frederick Beringer left Germany to found a winery and distillery in Napa. Reusing their Bourbon barrels to age wine just seemed like good financial sense, but they quickly discovered it added a whole new level of richness and complexity to their wine. Today, we recreate Jacob and Frederick’s pioneering spirit by aging Beringer Bros. wines in American oak Bourbon barrels. Enjoy smooth, robust wines with flavors of vanilla, toasted hazelnuts, and caramel – a glimpse of Beringer’s past.
WINEMAKING: Beringer Bros. Cabernet Sauvignon is picked at the peak of flavor development from top sites across California and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. 20% of the wine is aged for 60 days in second-pass charred American oak barriques which previously held Bourbon.
TASTING NOTES: This wine is bursting with aromas of ripe black cherry, dark chocolate, and vanilla. The palate is lush with ripe tannins and integrated acidity, showcasing toasted hazelnuts, toffee, and blackberry preserves on the finish.
