Favia
La Magdalena Napa Valley Cabernet Franc Cabernet Sauvignon
St. Helena, Napa Valley, California, USA
12’ Favia La Magdalena. Couldn’t wait any longer, had to open a bottle.
Even split of Cabernet/Cabernet Franc.
Holy smokes! I taste a dozen different things in this wine. Nothing stands out. If you have an opportunity to pick a few bottles up… Do it! Drink over the next 10+ years. CF blend Genius!

First time drinking this wine. Elegance in a glass. Fires on all cylinders.

Lovely floral nose. Silky mouthfeel, tannins really soft. Black and blue fruit, licorice, violet, crushed rock, wet granite. Amazing finish that lingers and lingers. RP gave it a 100, that’s a bit generous but man it’s really good and prob in its prime now.

Even better this time,
Not from benchmark so it's not brown💩
Parker 💯, easy to see or should I say taste why, great juice if you can find it.
