Rated 99 Points
#24 of Top 100 Wines in the World 2018

The spice and walnut aromas are so enticing. Undertones of blackberries and black truffles. Full-bodied, dense and layered with fantastic tension and seamless tannins. It goes on for minutes. All about classic structure and beauty. Try in 2021.

Containing the tiniest splashes of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve has a deep garnet-purple color and nose of plum preserves, baked blackberries and cassis with hints of menthol, sandalwood and chocolate box. Full-bodied with soft, seductive tannins and a lively backbone supporting the generous, ripe, opulent fruit, it has a decadent spiciness and great length. Drink 2018-2030.

Rated 93+ Points
Beringer's flagship 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve is tannic, unyielding and not fully put together. I suppose that is not entirely surprising, as most of the fruit was sourced from sites on Howell Mountain. Time in the glass brings out an attractive floral upper register, along with brighter notes in the fruit. Even so, the tannins remain forbidding. There is plenty to look forward to, but readers will have to be patient. The 2015 has been very tight on both occasions I have tasted it so far. (Antonio Galloni)

Wine Tasting Notes
Richly garnet and purple in color, the wine opens with aromas of oak spice and dark black fruits framed with chocolate mocha. The palate is dominated by mountain blackberries, plum, and cassis, accented by black truffles. The fruit is opulent with soft, silky tannins and excellent structure. A wine built for the ages, with much yet to be revealed.
