Winemaker Notes
Winemaster Comments: When I choose the fruit that will ultimately make the Sbragia Limited Release Chardonnay, it sort of comes from a gut feeling. The grapes need to taste complete and able to stand on their own, exhibiting total balance and richness. I look for something I call a 'totally yummy,' unctuous quality that needs no blending to round it. With each winemaking decision I make - like which particular barrels will perfectly match and enhance the fruit - I try to coax every layer of flavor out of the grapes and create a wine that is as much about personal expression as vineyard character and quality.

No winery or vineyard more thoroughly embodies the timeless appeal and seductive flavor of Napa Valley than Beringer Vineyards, Napa's benchmark producer since the establishment of the vineyard in 1876.
Now in its third century of crafting classic wines from Napa's finest appellations and vineyards, Beringer today is guided by the inspired partnership of celebrated Winemaster Emeritus Ed Sbragia and Winemaker Laurie Hook. Together, they craft Napa Valley wines that speak eloquently of the rich heritage of the Beringer Vineyard, while offering cutting-edge quality and contemporary elegance. The exquisite wines crafted at the Beringer Vineyards display a single minded dedication and pursuit of excellence instilled by its founder, Jacob Beringer.
