I generally preferred Beringer's 2001 cabernets to its 2000s - no surprise in light of the relative merits of these two years, and the tendency toward greenness of so much Howell Mountain fruit in 2000. With the 2002 vintage, Beringer has added a second sorting table in the vines, so that rotten or obviously underripe fruit can be eliminated before being brought into the winery.

Beringer releases its big reds at a leisurely pace: the vineyard-designated '98 cabernets had not yet been commercialized as of early March. So when I asked to see a full line-up of the 2000s and the 1999s (many of the latter still in barrel) at the beginning of March, my annual tasting marathon here provided Beringer's key players with a rare opportunity to view all their new wines at one sitting. I tasted with vice president Tor Kenward and winemaker Laurie Hook, who for years had served as Ed Sbragia's assistant. (Sbragia himself was recently promoted to Winemaster and Legend-in-Residence at Beringer.)
