Item Description

Farella Vineyards Merlot 2014


Outstanding vineyard and winery 4 miles east of Downtown Napa, Coombville District, where the wines remind us of very good Bordeaux. We think you'll agree with the Farella Merlot. Get dried wild blueberries, cedar, thyme, black tea, cassis, black figs, cocoa and a pleasing amaro-like bitter note on the 45 second finish. Bordeaux-like healthy acidity and fine tannins. Great red meat wine. Will just get better with time. 

Farella Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc 2017


In the end, Farella Sauvignon Blanc is best compared to the light, fresh, relatively low alcohol white wines commonly found in Northern Italy. The winery has been amazed at the ability of those wines to refresh and not dull the senses due to their low alcohol and high acidity.

Farella Vineyard Wines - Syrah 2013

 

 

The winemaking goal is to provide delicious, balanced wines that enhance the meal.  Since the wines are estate bottled, we have the advantage of exact timing for harvest and all winemaking operations which has become more rare in the Napa Valley.  The emphasis is on terroir-driven wines with layers of complexity and worthy of aging.  Our wine library, going back to 1985, reveals the achievement of these goals.  Farella wines typically are alive and ever-evolving and “tell a story” of the site and personality of each vineyard block.

The Sauvignon Blanc is a light, refreshing wine that emulates the white wines of Northern Italy. The Merlot, normally blended with a portion of Cabernet Sauvignon, is a supple wine with intriguing berry/cassis fruit and spice character. In 1991 we added Cabernet Sauvignon as a varietal, a very rich, ample and complex wine styled for fans of balanced California Cabernets. The 2001 vintage marked the first for a new product, our proprietary blend, Farella ALTA which was produced until the 2007 vintage and has now been reborn in 201
