Favia Oakville Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 (750ML)

96 Points, Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com: "The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville is cut from the same cloth, with a beautiful nose of red and black fruits interwoven with graphite, savory herbs, chocolate, and tobacco nuances. It too is medium to full-bodied, has impressive depth and concentration, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's another beautiful wine from this team that readers will love over the coming 15+ years. (Drink between 2025-2041)" 01/25

18+ Points, Samantha Cole-Johnson, JancisRobinson.com: "Matured in 50% new oak. Deep purple. Dense, closed and brooding – eventually opening to purple plum, juicy black fruit and a violet floral character. Mouth-coating polished tannin. Long and fresh finish that nevertheless leaves an impression of fullness and weight on the palate. (SCJ) (Drink between 2030-2050)" 04/25

97 Points, Jonathan Cristaldi, Decanter: "Alluring aromas of crunchy dark berry fruit and savoury sagebrush, underpinned by red dust minerality that layers itself seamlessly on the palate. The structure is powerful and intensely fragrant, with loamy earth, robust tannins and full-bodied volume. A firm spine of mineral-laced acidity drives the wine forward, bringing salinity, tension and remarkable energy to the long, compelling finish. Aged for 19 months in 50% new French oak.
