✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the historic Beringer estate, founded in 1876 by brothers Jacob and Frederick Beringer, the Tre Colline Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the rugged beauty of Napa Valley's Howell Mountain AVA. Named 'Three Hills' for its distinct topography, this high-elevation vineyard sits well above the valley fog line, basking in intense mountain sunlight while cooled by afternoon breezes. The volcanic, iron-rich soils force the vines to struggle, producing small, thick-skinned berries with immense concentration. This single-vineyard bottling is a classic expression of mountain Cabernet Sauvignon, typically aged in premium French oak barrels. It weaves a rich narrative of dark cassis, black cherry, graphite, and wild mountain sage, backed by a powerful, muscular tannic structure that has defined Beringer's pioneering legacy for generations.
🍾 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.
