Description

Description

The St. Helena Home Vineyard is largely responsible for the establishment of Beringer Vineyards because this site, situated around the present-day winery, first attracted founder Jacob Beringer to the property in 1875. The vineyard is formed of a sloped alluvial fan of rock and gravelly soils with little capacity to hold water. Planted mostly to Cabernet Sauvignon, its fruit has been a key component of the Private Reserve Cabernet since 1982, and is a key component of Beringer 8th Maker Cabernet Sauvignon. St. Helena Home Vineyard Cabernet is characterized by classic Cabernet flavors of berries and black cherries layered with licorice and spice and a fleshy mid-palate. Careful attention is paid to vineyard blocks, which are kept separate and vinified with a goal of extracting maximum flavor.

    “Fresh blueberries, blackberries, chocolate, dried flowers and vanilla. Black tea, too. It’s full-bodied with firm, fine and caressing tannins. Long, rich and deep with generous fruit and chocolate.” - James Suckling, January 2021

    “There are 739 cases of the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Home Vineyard, which comes from a site in St. Helena and is all Cabernet brought up in 48% new barrels. More blue fruits, violets, flowers, sandalwood, and dried tobacco emerge from this beauty, and it’s medium to full-bodied, with a seamless, elegant texture, terrific purity and a great finish. It’s another rock star wine in this lineup.” - Jeb Dunnuck, January 28, 2021

    “The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Home Vineyard is another superb wine in this range. Here, too the fruit really jumps out. Bright red fruit, blood orange, spice and cedar are all perked up by bright, salivating acids. Hints of rose petal and lavender add striking perfume. The 2018 will drink well pretty much right out of the gate. Today, the 2018 is irresistible for its forward, inviting personality.” - Antonio Galloni, March 2021
