With 3 microclimates through the vineyard, the grapes that come off this ranch are very special, both in hard work and achieving the high quality within the vineyard. This wine is Explosive! The concentration on this wine is so rich that it is hard to believe how well the wine is in balance with fruit, oak, alcohol and acid. I must tell you after months of tasting this wine in barrel, I kept shaking my head and saying, how could this wine be better than my fabulous 2002 vintage, but it's much better and will last longer in your cellars, like great Bordeaux, and the Super Tuscans wines. I could give you my sensory evaluation on this wine, but I would run out of adjectives. You won't be disappointed in this wine or my Luvisi Ranch.
The base for the Cumberland is always the lion's share of Bergström and de Lancellotti and Shea Vineyards. Then we add in our oldest vines from the Hyland and Durant Vineyards for structure; then the unique characters of some of our best sites such as Nysa, Temperance Hill, Palmer Creek, Anderson Family and Kalita Vineyards. Unlike many other winery blended wines, this wine is ...MoreThe base for the Cumberland is always the lion's share of Bergström and de Lancellotti and Shea Vineyards. Then we add in our oldest vines from the Hyland and Durant Vineyards for structure; then the unique characters of some of our best sites such as Nysa, Temperance Hill, Palmer Creek, Anderson Family and Kalita Vineyards. Unlike many other winery blended wines, this wine is NOT a declassified wine made from the leftovers of the single vineyard program. This Pinot Noir is crafted first and foremost to showcase the Bergström style and the vintage character year in and year out. The 2007 Cumberland Reserve is dark ruby in color with deep red reflections at the rim of the glass. The perfume is, as always, complex with great spice notes, minerality, coffee and chocolate undertones and a great vein of dark red fruits such as black cherry and black raspberry. The attack is full of fruit and very supple with suave tannins and silkiness in the mid-palate and finish.

The wine s aromas open with lush black cherry and blackberry character, infused with subtle hints of mocha, flinty minerality and black tea. Its expansive fruit flavors are packed with ripe berry, currant and plum -with dark chocolate and toffee nuances that persist on the palate. Balanced acidity and ripe, muscular tannins frame the midpalate flavors. This wine s graceful style and cocoa powder finish make it a truly classic Rutherford Dust Cabernet Sauvignon.
The grape source is the Red Cedar Vineyard in Paso Robles. To create this wine, we utilized two different blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon fruit. The predominate block lies on a steep, sloping terrace of Rincon clay loam. It is unique, and features very well-drained soil, which must be heavily cover cropped for protection against erosion.

The predominate block lies on a steep, sloping terrace of Rincon clay loam. It is unique, and features very well-drained soil, which must be heavily cover cropped for protection against erosion. The additional Cabernet Sauvignon fruit comes from a block which consists of fine sandy loam and is well-suited for growing wine grapes. Wine California Still Wine
Luminous ruby color. Forest berries, spices, leather, moist earth and dried plum, layered in the aroma. Soft, round taste, well-balanced acidity and clean and persistent aftertaste. Very pleasing, and ready to drink.
Beringer's Chardonnay vineyards span several sub-appellations in southern Napa Valley, where fog from the San Pablo Bay works its way north each afternoon during the growing season, cooling the vineyards and allowing a longer maturation period.

The cooler vineyards to the south produce grapes with crisp apple, pear and citrus characteristics, while vineyards closer to Yountville yield Chardonnay with a rich texture, and tropical fruit and pineapple aromas and flavors. Winemakers Ed Sbragia and Laurie Hook chose complementary lots from each of these vineyards to craft a wine that exhibits bright fruit, richness and complexity.

Medium straw color. Essences of pear, banana, and tropical fruits. Full, round mouthfeel with generous acidity and toasty oak. Great food-wine; try with white cream sauces or cheeses.
Medium red color. This wine is big in strawberry jam flavors with notes of red raspberry, and white chocolate. Full, round, soft palate with some spicy characteristics. This wine is fun! We are glad to have this wine available again.
