Subject: This WILL Sell Out: Over 50% off the 99pt 2016 Beringer Private Reserve Cabernet

To our Spectrum Wine clients,

Every now and then, a real dyed-in-the-wool unicorn deal comes along, one that makes you pinch yourself to be sure you’re not dreaming. Well, today’s the day.

We’re talking a top-tier, flagship, blue-chip Cabernet from a benchmark vintage at a price that makes absolutely no sense: the 2016 Beringer Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon. This now-legendary Napa bottling typically retails around $190 (and collectors will tell you it’s worth every penny), but right now it’s available pre-arrival with late December delivery for, are you sitting down, $79.98.

This is not a drill. What makes Private Reserve so special is that it's not a single-site wine, it’s a selection of the very best Cabernet blocks Beringer farms across Napa Valley. Think of it as a “grand cru blend” of Napa’s elite terroirs.

The backbone traditionally comes from the volcanic, high-elevation Howell Mountain vineyards, Bancroft Ranch and Steinhauer where tiny berries deliver density, structure, and mineral tension. Add to that the warm benchland elegance of St. Helena’s Home Vineyard, the purity of Saint Helena’s Chabot, and the lift and aromatic energy from Calistoga and the cooler pockets of Oakville.

These sites give Private Reserve its calling card... power, purity, and layers of complexity you don’t often see in a wine under $200 let alone under $80.

Winemaker Mark Beringer crafted the 2016 with a meticulous, almost Burgundian attention to detail. Everything begins with hand-sorted fruit, slow, temperature-controlled fermentations, and gentle extraction to preserve freshness and aromatic lift.

From there, the wine is aged in 100% French oak, about 90% new custom-coopered barrels selected for grain tightness and toast level. This is why the wine shows that signature Private Reserve polish: of silky tannins, seamless integration, and a finish that glides rather than shouts.

The élevage is long, patient, and exacting the kind of winemaking that used to define “old Napa luxury.” You taste it in every sip.

And the critics absolutely adore this wine. Have a look.

James Suckling - 99 Points

“Stunning Napa Cabernet with breathtaking depth and polish. Exceptional integration of super-ripe blackberries and the very finest oak. The tannins build up beautifully, forming wave upon wave as the wine unfolds across the palate. The finish shoots out with incredible length and harmony. A monumental wine that will thrill any collector.” Jeb Dunnuck - 97+ Points “The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve is a brilliant wine, and as with the 2015, shows the vintage beautifully. It offers incredible purity of fruit, with crème de cassis, graphite, lead-pencil, and freshly crushed rock characteristics. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and elegant, yet also concentrated and powerful, it’s impeccably balanced. Give it 2–4 years of bottle age and enjoy over the next 20+ years.”

Wine Advocate (Lisa Perrotti-Brown) - 95 Points

“Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2016 Private Reserve bursts from the glass with crème de cassis, kirsch, blackberry preserves and blueberry pie. Layers of chocolate box, violets, licorice, and warm spices add dimension. Full-bodied with a firm, chewy frame and loads of savory accents, it finishes long and multi-layered. A superb expression of Napa Cabernet in an exceptional vintage.”

So let’s break down the biggest no-brainer of the year:

• A historic Napa Cabernet producer.

• An elite vintage.

• Multiple 95–99 point scores.

• A winery price of $190.

• Your price: $79.98.

This is the kind of deal that defines why Wine Exchange/Spectrum Wine exists, top-tier wines, real-world prices, zero nonsense.

Don’t miss this wine! It’s going to disappear fast. You know what to do...

This wine is set on a short pre-arrival window and will ship and be ready for pickup at the end of December. We will alert you when it arrives in house. Please plan accordingly.

Beringer Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley Private Reserve 2016 Pre-Arrival
(ETA End of December

99 Points! Breathtaking. Exceptional integration of super ripe blackberries and the very finest oak. The tannins build up beautifully, forming wave upon wave as the wine flows across the palate. Then the wave breaks on your palate and shoots way out at the finish, so that you wonder where it will end and normal life begin again. Needs time to soften, but this is so, so good. Give it two or three years. - James Suckling
