So much more sweet fruited on the nose than the Caldwell. Partially due to age. Little bit of toasted oak with blackberries and cassis on the nose. Licorice, ripe raspberries and clove on the finish. Very Farella-like, as it should be. Years ahead of it. Nice pull @Mark Flesher .

2012. Nice visit with Massimo Di Costanzo in St Helena today. Outstanding Farella Cab with nice acidity. 2013 barrel sample was also outstanding. This is a young winemaker worth following.

It’s what I like best about Bourgueil, with Bordeaux richness and some New World flare and intensity of fruit. The oak is worn very modestly, to my taste. Lovely balance within the context of New World structure.
Sweet ripe green peppers with dark fruit and modest, well-melded oak accent. Phenomenally elegant balance with just a hint of opulence, and supple tannins. Persistent. Score: Between 9 and 9.5
