✨ Technical Specifications
Stone Cellars by Beringer pays homage to the historic, hand-chiseled stone cellars completed in 1880 at the Beringer estate in St. Helena. Originally conceived to deliver approachable, fruit-forward expressions of classic California varietals, this Zinfandel captures the sunny, warm-climate character of California's grape-growing regions. Crafted primarily from Zinfandel grapes sourced from select vineyards across the state, the wine is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel to preserve its vibrant fruit character, followed by brief aging on oak to add subtle structure. It delivers classic notes of jammy blackberry, dark cherry, and a hint of cracked black pepper, embodying an easy-drinking, crowd-pleasing style that honors Beringer's deep California roots.
🍾 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.
