We are honored to be invited back for our fifth participation in Berserker Day. We’re offering different ways to study what we are doing across various varieties, sites and vintages. Special Berserker Day pricing of 20% off on these select 3 and 6-packs. We have listed Vinous ratings, where possible, for consistency in rating criteria and because that is the one publication that actually tastes everything we make every vintage. You can find all of these offerings in one place with this link: Scherrer Berserkerday15 Special Offers.
Offer 1: Scherrer Flight

Offer 5: OMV is Our Mantra
Back by popular demand: Zinfandel was where I started our label in 1991 and had to include our ‘Old & Mature’ Vines (OMV) bottling made from the Old Vines my grandfather planted in 1912 and ‘mature’ vines I helped my Father and Grandfather plant in the 1970s. While I had actually experimented with a more heady style years ago on a trial basis (2005-2007 special cuvee), this is a site that I think really expresses its best facets with an elegant perspective. I selected a short vertical of the three newest vintages we have in a meaningful quantity in case someone is compelled to come back to the well. Regularly $128, Berserker Special $102 You can find the offer here.

Offer 6: Helfer Helper
Another back by popular demand: Helfer Vineyard is a tiny vineyard just across the street from Kistler. It is a magical Chardonnay neighborhood, where the white, sandy version of goldridge soil lies. This 1 acre site produces a very small production and extremely limited availability wine. While it’s rich and complex, it has good balancing acidity. Regularly $156, Berserker Special $125 You can find the offer here.
