2018 | Farella Vineyard | Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Shows a lovely mix of cold cast iron, charcoal and warm earth notes that run underneath layers of warmed cassis, plum reduction, violet and apple wood. Long, focused finish.

Reviews:

• Decanter: Contains vines dating back to 1979. Farella has long been a source for top names in Napa, seeking the freshness typical of the Coombsville appellation. The nose here relays this, with an elegant and graceful blackberry aromas. The texture is svelte and full of energy, with a lovely, subtle bite to the finish. A great value, especially considering one can pay many times more for wines that contain this very fruit.

• James Suckling: Aromas of mulberries, dried herbs, cedar, lavender and spice box. It’s medium-to full-bodied with fine tannins and fresh acidity. Fleshy texture with fruity and crunchy character and a vibrant, fresh finish. Deep and rich. Needs time to open and come together.
