Tasting Notes

The 2022 Far Niente Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon opens with an elegant perfume of mixed berries, baking spice, dried lavender and thyme open onto a full palate layered with expansive mixed berry, black tea, toasted oak and spice flavors. Focused and fresh, fine-grained tannins support the wine throughout, while the finish is silky, long and lifted,  culminating from the marrying of fruit from Calistoga, Oak Knoll, Diamond Mountain, Stags Leap, St. Helena and Yountville with estate-grown fruit from Martin Stelling Vineyard.
