Wine Spectator Review
Rated 94
#4 TOP 100 WINES OF 2024
Packed and broad in feel, with a ganache note draped over black currant, blackberry and steeped cherry. Licorice root and alder smoke flavors check in on the finish as the fruit pumps through, ending with a flash of violet. Hard to resist now, but this has some development ahead. Drink now through 2036.
James Suckling Review
Rated 95
Inviting aromas of ripe blackcurrants and blackberries as well as crushed walnuts, cedar and bark. Full-bodied, creamy and structured with firm, polished tannins. Balanced and even with a lingering finish. Better after 2026.
Wine Tasting Notes
Cabernet's classic aromas and flavors star in this Faust Napa Cabernet. Delicate violet notes lift the dark fruit on the nose - black currant and briary blackberry - layered with pungent forest botanicals, leafy tobacco, graphite, and toasted spice. The velvet of fine-textured tannins backs expressive red fruit flavors on a complex palate, both sweet and savory with mocha and minerality, juicy ripe fruit and freshness.
85% Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented with Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc
