My husband traveled to his Home State of California for a Family Reunion in October of this year. While there the whole troup went on an wine tour of the Mondavi Winery and the Beringer Winery. My husband bought the Beringer 1998 Napa Valley Chardonnay Private Reserve, Proprietor Grown wine for me. We opened it last evening and it is just the most wonderful wine! It is now, our favorite of all wines. I'm glad to see you carry it online and will be available for shipping.
A Customer - Illinois
Having toured and tasted a number of Beringer wines on our trip to Napa, we were overjoyed to see the Beringer Private Reserve on the wine list at the resturant where we went in Pheonix on our honeymoon. There was no question as to what we would have for our first dinner out - the Private Reserve. With much anticipation, we waited for our waiter to bring out the bottle. The aroma was exquisite, and as we toasted the start of our life together, we sipped the PERFECT wine. So smooth yet so rich. So full of life yet so easy on the palate. As the kids say these days it was DA BOMB (or is that phrase out of date already?) Fruity yet with a clean aftertase, this is a wine among all wines!!

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine

About Professional Ratings

These wine ratings are based on a 100-point quality scale, and are selected by each publication's unique criteria. Some wine ratings are expressed as ranges. When this occurs we will list the highest score in the range and note the full range within the tasting note.

While ratings may influence your decision, the ultimate judgment is your palate.
