Faust pinot noir różowe z reinghau. Leciutkie, w nosie delikatnie truskawki, w ustach konsekwentne. Niezbyt wyraziste, jako aperitif bardzo przyzwoite — 9 months ago
Blackberry, vegetal, herbal, with greenery. Some smokiness on the nose with black licorice. It's great to have an alternative of comparable quality to Napa Cabernet. In terms of $/points this punches way above its weight. To me, this is a very slightly better version of Faust Cab.

A powerful and expressive red blend from the Faust Estate Vineyard located in the Coombsville sub-AVA, Napa Valley. This is a 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, and 2% Petit Verdot that generously offers a compelling level of red fruits with just-right-ripen cherries.
Both; the nose and palate concours on the concentrated flavors. It has a tremendous mouthfeel with a palpable high acidity, and spices, making it savory enough to either pair it with food or just having as a sipper.
This V.2021 was ranked #4 in Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines of 2024. The 2021 vintage in Napa Valley was a result of the drought conditions, and the lower-than-average rainfall led to a mild spring/summer, that extended the development of the growing grapes and harvest period. So, wines were more powerful than compared to other recent vintages. Cheers! — 14 days ago

Wowza. Now that’s a grosses gewachs.
Nose is intensely mineral almost smoky. So dense. As it opens less dense and more floral. White flowers.
Palate is densely mineral. Gods lemon. So good. A 9.5 on open. As it opens more of a sweet elegance. Approaching Faust test levels.
