THE WINE
Faust Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is a bold, powerful red that marries depth and finesse. Rich black cherry, violet, and currant aromas are layered with star anise and baking spice. The palate offers mocha, cedar, mineral nuance, and polished tannins that unfold into a long, savory finish-elegant yet expressive, and fashioned for both immediate pleasure and graceful evolution.
VARIETAL COMPOSITION
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc.
VINEYARD NOTES
Sourced from estate parcels in Coombsville and Rutherford, with mountain fruit from Atlas Peak, Mount Veeder, and Howell Mountain. This multi-terroir sourcing imparts a dynamic interplay-velvety blue- and black-fruit core from cooler sites, and structure, tension, and minerality from elevated vineyards. The fruit is hand-harvested, sorted meticulously, then barrel-aged to showcase both power and terroir-driven freshness.
TASTING NOTES
Deep purple in color; aromas of fresh black cherry, plum, star anise, and violet segue into savory notes-cedar, graphite, herbs, and dark chocolate. The palate is layered and velvety, balanced by bright acidity and silky tannins, finishing with dark fruit and mineral nuances that persist long after pouring. Silky, elegant, and built for complexity.
