Fresh blackberries, tobacco and dried sage. Not overripe. Nice restraint on this. From the cooler sub-AVA of coombsville

Amazing quality. If you haven’t tried this cab, I highly recommend it. If you have tried it then you know what I’m talking about

Stunned at the quality and precision of this wine. If you haven’t already, you really need to.

I am no expert on Farella, or Coombsville. But I have had some seriously hot and overdone wines from there. This is not one of them. Lovely varietal character, full of cassis that is inviting and almost pastille-like . There is a lot of stuffing to this wine, but it’s carried in an easy style and maintains some subtlety and brightness. Really an excellent wine. Approachable out of the gate.
