Fabulous Riesling. Still has many years to go, but this is drinking wonderfully today with good acidity but pronounced stone fruits and citrus notes. Good value
Absolutely singing. Still has several years to go. But an amazing bouquet that has been attenuated by age and doesn’t come across as the intense floral attack of this varietal. Good acidity to help create a sharp, clean finish

This wine reminded me of how good Napa Cabernet can be. Could easily pass for a wine half its age and has many more years to go. Just classic Cabernet notes and everything in balance. I have never had a Beringer Private Reserve that disappointed. It is so consistently good and pricing has remained remarkably stable, making it even more attractive
