✨ Technical Specifications
Montagia Cabernet Sauvignon represents a celebrated partnership between Beringer Vineyards and legendary Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana. Crafted in collaboration with Beringer's winemaking team, this premium bottling is a tribute to Napa Valley's premier terroir. Sourced from select high-elevation and valley floor vineyards, the wine is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in French oak barrels to develop its signature complexity. It weaves together the rich history of Beringer—one of Napa's oldest continuously operating wineries—with Montana's passion for world-class wine, resulting in a bold, structured red characterized by dark fruit, refined tannins, and subtle spice.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1876 by brothers Jacob and Frederick Beringer, Beringer Vineyards holds the distinction of being California's oldest continuously operating winery, situated in the heart of St. Helena in Napa Valley. Pioneers of early Napa winemaking, the Beringer brothers engineered hand-dug limestone caves and gravity-fed cellars to craft refined, ageworthy wines. Today, owned by Treasury Wine Estates, the historic estate maintains an uncompromising dedication to site-specific viticulture across prime Napa Valley and Knights Valley terroirs. Beringer is internationally celebrated for its flagship Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, alongside complex single-vineyard expressions and botrytized dessert wines like Nightingale.
