Wine:
Beringer Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Vintage:
2004
Type:
Cabernet Sauvignon California
Tasting Notes:
The 2002 vintage of this wine is one of my all time favorites, this 2004 is also quite good.  The color is a bright scarlet, it looks well aged and full bodied.  The nose is quite open with blackberry, chocolate,  oak, leather and a slight tobacco odor.  The taste is what I've come to expect of good vintage of this reserve cabernet blend.  The tart full fruit strikes the palette first with a wave of sweetness and complexity.  The middle has an acidic structure as the fruit fades away to a long tannin finish.  This wine will get even better as the tannins mellow over the next few years but may never be as good as the 2002.  94
Cost:
$90.00
