Description
Berringer Wines are created in the NAPA Valley in California. Their home and winery provide a wonderful tour, where you can walk through the caves full of wine barrels, protected from the elements above at a perfect temperature do develop and preserve the flavor.
According to the tour guide, these bottles were prepared for a major wine tasting, but somehow became forgotten for many years behind a locked door in one of the cellars. This special vintage has been kept in its hiding place for many years, and is available for viewing only in the cellar. The special flavor of the wine has been preserved and is still in perfect condition due to the perfect temperature, and the candle that provides the scant light necessary for this photo.
In my mind I imagine what flavor and value are in those bottles, as I cautiously up to the open roped off door. I wonder if I could have got away with just one bottle.
