2020 Beringer Q Blend

Frederick Beringer's former residence "The Rhinehouse"  is now the center piece of the expansive Beringer property. Exhibiting the fine, detailed craftsmanship of the period, the Rhine House has beautiful exterior stonework, stained-glass windows and interior wood paneling. When building his 17-room mansion, Frederick wanted to mimic the Beringer family's impressive German home at Mainz-on-the-Rhine. Built at a cost of about $28,000 (with the 40 panels of stained glass accounting for $6,000) the Rhine House is a classic example of ornate Victorian architecture with its many gables, turrets and ornaments. Margo Van Staaveren began her winemaking career at Beringer and brings more than 45 harvests of experience to the role. She has worked with the brand for many years, helping shape some of its most acclaimed wines as part of her leadership across the North Coast portfolio. Known for her refined blending style and deep vineyard knowledge, Margo crafts expressive, age-worthy wines that reflect both tradition and innovation. Her thoughtful, collaborative approach continues to guide Beringer’s winemaking today. “Beringer has long held a special place in my heart—not only as one of Napa’s most historic estates, but as a benchmark for excellence in California winemaking.”
