The inviting, layered nose shows grilled pineapple, lemon meringue, toasted hazelnut, mandarin zest, and subtle chamomile. Hints of toasted crème brûlée add warmth and depth. On the palate, the wine is creamy, generous, and fully textured, with a bright, focused line of acidity that brings energy and lift. Flavors of citrus curd, warm spice, and soft tropical fruit unfold with clarity across the seamless mid-palate. The interplay of richness and freshness remains finely tuned, giving the wine both presence and poise. The finish is long, clean, and persistent.
Beringer Description
Introduced in 1979, Beringer's Private Reserve Chardonnay is a true Napa Valley icon. Crafted from select single vineyard sites, this Chardonnay has a luscious mouthfeel and elegant fruit core rounded out by nine months of aging in French Oak barrels.
James Suckling: 96 Points
This has a vivid intensity balanced with freshness and just the right influence of oak. Aromas of preserved lemons, salted caramel, orange blossoms, lanolin and spices. The palate is tightly wound, showing mouthwatering acidity and a lovely texture with a flavorful finish. About 80% malolactic fermentation. Drink or hold.
Wine Spectator: 92 Points
This is succulent, showing a bright expression of orange blossom, lemon curd, dried mango and tangerine details as well as a touch of pineapple. Supplemented by accents of graham cracker, spices and toasted sesame seed, plus a sprinkle of sea salt and a lemon balm accent. Gains momentum and additional juicy facets on the long finish.
