✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Founded in 1876 by German immigrant brothers Jacob and Frederick Beringer, Beringer Vineyards holds the distinction of being the oldest continuously operating winery in the Napa Valley, surviving even the dark days of Prohibition by producing sacramental wine. Their classic California Chardonnay is a tribute to this rich heritage, showcasing the vibrant, sun-drenched character of the Golden State. Sourced from select vineyards across California's premier growing regions, this wine is crafted to highlight the grape's natural fruitiness. It undergoes a combination of stainless steel fermentation to preserve bright citrus and stone fruit aromas, alongside partial malolactic fermentation and oak aging to introduce a smooth, creamy texture with hints of toasted brioche and vanilla.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Beringer Vineyards blev grundlagt i 1876 af brødrene Jacob og Frederick Beringer og er i dag Californiens ældste kontinuerligt fungerende vinhus, beliggende i hjertet af St. Helena i Napa Valley. Som pionerer inden for tidlig vinproduktion i Napa udhuggede Beringer-brødrene kalkstensgrotter med håndkraft og etablerede kældre baseret på tyngdekraftsprincippet for at skabe raffinerede og lagringsværdige vine. I dag ejes det historiske vinhus af Treasury Wine Estates og viderefører en kompromisløs dedikation til terroirdrevet vindyrkning på tværs af de bedste parceller i Napa Valley og Knights Valley. Beringer nyder international anerkendelse for sine ikoniske Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon og Chardonnay, suppleret af komplekse enkeltmarksudgaver samt botrytiserede dessertvine som Nightingale.
