Why You'll Love This Wine Beringer's flagship Cabernet and one of Napa Valley's most celebrated wines. The Private Reserve program has been crafting benchmark Cabs since 1977. The 2016 is drinking beautifully now.

Tasting Notes Intense crème de cassis, dark and blue fruits, and baking spices. Full-bodied and muscular with elegantly integrated tannins. Layers of dark fruit and spice unfold through a powerful, complex finish.

Food Pairings

- Prime cuts of beef

- Rack of lamb

- Aged cheeses

- Special occasion dinners

Why It Works Individual vineyard lots aged 20 months in custom-toasted French Nevers oak barrels (83% new). The 2016 vintage offers the structure for continued aging or immediate enjoyment.
