“Ripe blackcurrants, blackberries and plums with notes of vanilla, licorice, dark chocolate and pinewood. Dark and smoky character with full body, chewy tannins and meaty structure. Plush, delicious fruit. Holds long and even with hints of crushed stones and walnuts at the end. Try after 2025.” - James Suckling, February 2022
“The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Steinhauer Vineyard is particularly attractive in that it lacks the green overtones of Beringer's other Howell Mountain Cabs. Marked instead by hints of pencil shavings and ripe cassis, it's full-bodied yet shows classic Cabernet restraint, being streamlined, concentrated and long and tannic on the finish. In some vintages, this source can account for as much as 40% of the Private Reserve.” - Joe Czerwinski, June 2022
“Classic iron, darker foresty, herbal notes, and both black and blue fruits emerge from the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Steinhauer Ranch Vineyard, a medium to full-bodied, balanced, nicely concentrated Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon. It has textbook mountain tannins and structure, and tasted blind, I'd almost guess 2018 given its pure, focused, Bordeaux-like stature. It's not massive, nor does it have a ton of baby fat, but I love its mid-palate density and overall balance. Hide bottles for 4-5 years if you can, and it should keep for 20+ years.” - Jeb Dunnuck, May 4, 2022
