Favia Cab. Sauv Combsville 2019
$279.00Add to cartIf you don’t know Favia let us introduce you. Founded by husband and wife team Annie Favia and Andy Erickson in 2003, this winery has been steadily releasing some of the best (and most ageworthy) Cabernets in the valley.The reason they were able to come right out of the gate making such stellar wine is the pedigree that they bring to the table. She managed vineyards for Abreu and then Colgin, Harlan, and Aurajo while he was assistant winemaker at Harlan and then winemaker at Screaming Eagle among other projects.Sourced from three Coombsville vineyards: Meteor, The Rabbit Hole, and Collinetta. A glass-staining ruby-purple color. Intensely aromatic blackberry and cherry fruits are pure, precise, and layered with fragrant cedarwood notes, white pepper, and dark chocolate. Full-bodied with unctuous and concentrated dark berry fruits that have a satiny quality, framed by velvety fine-grained tannins and gobs of red licorice, aromatic violets, and graphite. So dense and tightly packed and yet so fresh and inviting. A classic Coombsville expression of Cab. -
Foxen Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir 2020
$50.00Add to cartFoxen is a legend in Santa Barbara wine country. Founded by Dick Doré and Bill Wathen in the late 70s it wasn’t until the late 80’s that they got their license (the 13th in the region which now is home to over 200). They work with some of the best fruit in the region where winemaker David Whitehair seeks to express the fruit cleanly. This fruit comes from the cooler pinot plots of Santa Maria which is closer to the coast than Foxen Canyon. The wine is a delightful pinot with all the hallmarks of fruit that benefits from a big shift between the night and day temperatures, and like all great Santa Barbara wines there’s a distinct tell of salinity.
