| | | Every once in a while a Napa Cabernet comes along that reminds you why certain wines became legends in the first place. Not because they’re trendy. Not because they’re impossible to find. But because year after year they simply deliver at a level that very few wineries can consistently match.
That’s exactly what the 2017 Beringer Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon does.
For longtime Napa collectors, Beringer Private Reserve has always been one of the valley’s benchmark Cabernets. It’s a wine that helped define modern Napa luxury long before most cult wineries even existed. And in a challenging vintage like 2017, the truly great producers separated themselves from the pack.
Beringer absolutely nailed it.
The best part? We managed to secure this wine at a price that frankly feels almost impossible in today’s Cabernet market.
Normally retailing for $175, we are offering the 2017 Beringer Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon for just $69.98. That’s not just a good deal, it’s a genuinely special opportunity to buy a flagship Napa Cabernet at a price that almost never happens anymore.
What makes Private Reserve unique is that it’s not tied to a single vineyard. Instead, it represents a selection of the finest Cabernet blocks Beringer farms throughout Napa Valley, essentially a “best of vintage” blend from some of the region’s top terroirs.
The backbone traditionally comes from the volcanic soils and high-elevation structure of Howell Mountain, particularly Bancroft Ranch and Steinhauer Ranch, delivering concentration, minerality, and age-worthy tannins.
Those mountain sites are layered with beautifully ripe fruit from St. Helena, Oakville, and Calistoga, creating a wine that combines Napa richness with remarkable balance and freshness.
And that balance is exactly what makes the 2017 vintage so compelling. Despite the heat and challenges of the growing season, the top estates that harvested carefully and worked meticulously in the vineyards produced wines with incredible concentration, structure, and aromatic intensity. The best 2017s show richness without heaviness and possess a classic Napa profile that is already drinking beautifully while still having decades ahead of them.
In the cellar, the winemaking remains classic Beringer Private Reserve. The fruit is hand harvested, meticulously sorted, and fermented slowly with gentle extraction to preserve precision and purity.
The wine is then aged in approximately 90% new French oak barrels, giving the wine its signature texture, seamless, polished, and layered without overwhelming the fruit. This is old-school Napa luxury done right.
The aromatics explode from the glass with crème de cassis, blackberry liqueur, graphite, dark chocolate, espresso roast, cedar spice, and crushed violets. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, yet beautifully controlled, with velvety tannins and remarkable energy carrying through the finish. |
