At its core, Faust Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from some of the region’s most celebrated vineyard sites, including Coombsville, Rutherford, Atlas Peak, Mount Veeder, and Oak Knoll. Each sub-appellation contributes unique terroir characteristics: Coombsville offers dark fruit concentration and minerality; Rutherford delivers classic cassis and earthy undertones; Mount Veeder adds mountain-grown structure and spice. Together, they create a complex, multidimensional Cabernet that captures the essence of Napa Valley in every glass.
In the glass, Faust Cabernet Sauvignon reveals a deep ruby color with violet hues. The nose opens with seductive aromas of black cherry, ripe blackberry, and cassis, layered with notes of cocoa, espresso, cedar, and hints of dried herbs. On the palate, rich flavors of dark plum and blueberry are complemented by subtle accents of graphite, tobacco, and vanilla from 19 months of aging in French oak barrels. The tannins are firm yet velvety, delivering a long, elegant finish that lingers with notes of mocha and spice.
This wine’s hallmark is balance — power and grace in perfect harmony. Faust is full-bodied and structured enough to age gracefully for a decade or more, yet supple enough to enjoy young with hearty cuisine. It pairs beautifully with grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, lamb chops, or roasted portobello mushrooms, making it a versatile choice for both fine dining and casual gatherings.
