Light gold color. Split bottle over 3 hours. Brilliant nose, filled with toasted almonds, pain grille, whipped caramel cream, golden flowers, ripe apple, sea air, ocean minerality and crisp pear. The palate is crisp and bright, well toasted, nutty, nice clarity, limestone, toasted almonds, apple, dulce de leche, pear, spiced apple peel, nice weight, excellent length. Wonderful. I should have hung onto a coule of these. 94+(+)pts.

Very dark red/purple color. PNP, drank a glass plus over 3 hours at the Ranch. Consistent with a recent note. Showed a bit younger tonight, cassis, a little herbaceous, dense and full bodied, cassis, dark black berries, spice and wood tones. 91+ to 92pts.

2012 Beringer Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve

Very dark red/purple color with a garnet hue. PNP, drank a couple glasses over 3 hours. At the Ranch for opening weekend. This has a big nose with plenty of black and a bit of blue fluit; black raspberry liqueur, plum, black cherry skin, menthol, green pepper, fresh herbs. The palate is also full bodied, well textured with plenty of glyverin, creme de cassis, black raspberry liqueur, menthol, plush with a somewhat medicinal vibe. This is layered, deep and has plenty of power while the age has also served it well. In a good spot now, though certainly no rush.
