Groom Shiraz - Australia (limited quantity)
True to its variety, the wine is deep, black and brooding in color. The nose shows bright fresh aromas of spice, licorice and black currants. We have purposely kept the new oak component at a minimum to allow the vibrant fruit characters of the vintage to elevate. We especially love the palate of this wine, particularly the warmth, length and velvety silkiness it delivers. This is an awesome, delicious wine that we are very proud of. Enjoy!
Faust Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
The color is opaque crimson and it looks less approaching than it actually is. Ripe and concentrated aromas and flavors of plum blueberry and dark cherry are accentuated by a touch of fresh herbs light cedar fresh tobacco leaves and a fine spiciness. The fruit on the mid palate is a laser beam of intense pure clean fruit, which will broaden over time. The finish is long with finely-textured ripe tannins.
"Faust is the epitome of the style that has made Napa Cabernet Sauvignon world renowned: bold and powerful yet elegant and concentrated. Top Cabernet Sauvignon lots are selected from vineyards Agustin Huneeus owns in Rutherford a Napa Valley appellation synonymous with the best of Napa Valley Cabernet as well as the up and coming soon to be named Tulocay viticultural area south of Atlas Peak.
Both vineyards are carefully tended to produce low yields and great concentration. The grapes are double sorted and crushed at Quintessa one of the Napa Valley's most technologically sophisticated wineries featuring gravity-flow design oak fermentation and naturally cooled caves."
