"Estate vineyards in the Alexander Valley offer some of the redder, darker, and more dense tannins in the blend. With the composition of other mountain and valley vineyards, blended with Merlot helping to add riper and softer fruit expressions to provide wine length and balance. Blocks, varieties, and clones are kept separate until final blending to allow the greatest range of expression and blending options." —winemaker

"On the nose, it offers a sophisticated array of aromas, including ripe blackberries, plums, and a distinctive floral note of violets, complemented by subtle undertones of mocha and sweet spice from careful oak aging. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with a silky texture that envelops the mouth. Flavors of dark fruit are perfectly balanced with fine-grained tannins and a refreshing acidity that leads to a long, graceful finish. Notes of cedar and graphite add complexity, making this wine not only a pleasure to drink now but also promising for future aging. This 2023 Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon is a luxurious expression of its terroir, ideal for pairing with rich meat dishes or savoring on a special occasion." —winemaker

"Elegantly structured and polished, Faust 2023 Napa Valley Cabernet is exquisitely balanced between freshness and richness on the palate. The cool forest notes that lift from the glass meld with oak spice, bay laurel, and fragrant underbrush while the wine's signature star anise gives way to beautifully concentrated flavors of Luxardo cherry, blueberry compote, and dark cocoa. Fine-grained tannins wrap around a backbone of acidity that persists-with intriguing wet-slate minerality-endlessly on the finish. The generous character of this wine makes it delicious now, but with its tight structure, it will age beautifully." —winemaker
