Napa Valley, California

Produced by the iconic Far Niente Winery, this Cabernet Sauvignon is a benchmark Napa Valley wine, renowned for its polish, balance, and age-worthy elegance. Far Niente’s style emphasizes refinement and harmony, showcasing Napa’s power with poise and precision.

Style

A luxurious yet beautifully balanced Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Rich and expressive, with plush fruit, fine tannins, and seamless oak integration, crafted in a classic Far Niente style that favours elegance over excess.

Tasting Notes

Appearance:
Deep ruby to garnet with vibrant highlights.

Nose:
Generous and layered. Aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and ripe plum are complemented by notes of violet, cedar, graphite, cocoa, and subtle vanilla and baking spice from well-integrated oak.

Palate:
Full-bodied and velvety. Concentrated flavours of cassis, black cherry, and dark plum glide across the palate, supported by polished tannins and balanced acidity. Nuances of espresso, dark chocolate, sweet spice, and a touch of minerality add depth and complexity.

Finish:
Long, smooth, and elegant, with lingering dark fruit, cocoa, and refined oak.

Vintage Character – 2021

A standout Napa Valley vintage marked by lower yields and exceptional concentration. The 2021 wines show depth, structure, and intensity, balanced by freshness and precision, making them both compelling now and highly age-worthy.
