Let me start off by saying two things: 1. This is a damn good Merlot… no really; 2. I didn’t know Beringer could make such a great Merlot! When I think of Beringer, I think of terribly cheap and terribly bad Cab Sauv, or White Zin; but then I’ve been doing some digging and Beringer has earned some accolades from both consumer and expert on their high end Chards and Cab Sauvs. This Merlot is no exception. Big fruit, velvet tannins, bright acidity, and a long, lingering finish. Depending on where you buy this, it will set you back from $50 to $80, so shop intelligently. Highly recommended.

A great value in a California Merlot. Don't be put off by the Beringer name (some people are due to the mass production). This was the Estate Cellars 2006 and a very nice surprise. A more lively Merlot than expected. Lots of life and some fresh berries. Enjoy!

Followed '97 Sequoia Grove Reserve Cab. and '01 Plumpjack Estate Cab. I think this was clearly the best but about half of the twelve of us gave it to the Plumpjack. Served with Beef Tenderloin w/Bearnaise Sauce, wild rice, Gruyere and spinach topped baked tomatos, and an onion tart. This wine stood up to those rich and copmplex flavors. IMO (and experience) this is about everything you could ask for or expect from a Cal Cab.
