The Beringer Marston Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a masterful expression of mountain-grown fruit, sourced from the historic Marston Vineyard nestled on the steep slopes of the Spring Mountain District in Napa Valley. Originally planted in the late 19th century, this vineyard features well-drained volcanic soils and a unique microclimate that benefits from cool marine breezes and high-elevation sunlight. Beringer, one of Napa's oldest continuously operating wineries founded by the Beringer brothers in 1876, has long recognized the exceptional quality of this site. The resulting wine is typically a powerful, structured Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in French oak barrels to integrate its robust mountain tannins. It weaves a rich narrative of dark mountain berries, graphite, and cocoa, reflecting the rugged yet elegant terroir of Spring Mountain.
