Keith Robinson reviewed this wine as follows:

AB SKU +189799

2010 Beringer Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

Price: $140

Availability: Zyn.ca

Assessed by: Keith Robinson

Tasted: November 2014

Product Details: Napa, California 14.4% ABV 100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Beringer Vineyards is a large, old California wine producer and part of the global behemoth Treasury Wine estates. Treasury also owns Fosters, Wof Blass, amongst lots of other drinks producers.

They produce solid, market-friendly wines that are reliable and well-made. The Private Reserve is Beringer's top tier Cab.

The tasting: Well this is a mouthful of happy, dense fruit. The blackberries practically jump out of the glass into the nose. On the palate this is rich, strong and full with dusty persistent tannins. Everything you'd want in a top-drawer crowd-pleasing Napa Cab.

Drink now through 2018.

When to drink: With a fancy BBQ or other well-healed gathering. Possible love-trap wine if you are looking to catch the right type.

Food pairing: Steaks. Burgers. Ribs.

Music pairing: Greatest Hits, The Eagles

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
