The Beringer Private Reserve Chardonnay 2013 brims with fruit and subtle bakery flavors. The nose is full of aromas of grilled pineapple, ripe pear, lemon oil, hazelnut, and toasted brioche. The palate displays bright yellow apple, Asian pear, and Meyer lemon. The mouthfeel is luscious and the finish is long.
This white wine is made using grapes that are primarily from the Gamble Ranch in Yountville. This vineyard stays cool overnight and into the late morning, before giving way to bright sunshine. This ensures lush, crisp fruit and excellent wines.
