Beringer Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve 1996

Napa Valley, California, United StatesOpen olive bell pepper vanilla sweaty smoky coffee mocha aromas. Round soft tannins on the mid-palate and all the way through the finish. Good balance of fruit and acidity here. Not a massive wine and showing maturity at this point. Will peak by 2005.Tasted: 01 March 1999Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
