Faust Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 Magnum

$125.99
Winemaker Notes #4 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2024 Cabernet's classic aromas and flavors star in the 2021 Faust Napa Valley. 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. Blend: : 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented with Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc

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.
