Winemaking

Winemaking

This Cabernet Sauvignon is picked at the peak of flavor development from top sites across Napa and Sonoma. Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks with frequent pump-overs to maximize color and flavor extraction. The wine is then aged for 20 months in French oak barrels, 20% new, for a warm, vanilla complexity. A splash of Petite Sirah, a classic Napa variety during the Prohibition era, is blended in for authenticity and an infusion of body and spice.

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.
