It aged in 45% new French oak (Seguin-Moreau, Taransaud, François Frères), resulting in a wine that's full-bodied but structured, streamlined and focused. Mocha and dark chocolate emerge on the long, gently tannic finish. It's a well-struck drive, right down the middle of the fairway.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFaust Wines is a Napa Valley wine producer, primarily producing a collection of varietal Cabernet Sauvignon wines.The 45 hectare (110 acre) estate vineyard is located in Coombsville, one of Napa's cooler AVAs.
