Classic Di Costanzo — a delicious, slightly lighter cab. Relatively low tannin, crisp and clear. Could probably have used some more air before drinking. It tasted more similar than different to me vs the Farella Vineyard. Looking forward to drinking again. $105 - $125? — 3 years ago
Birthday red for the birthday girl 🍷 all made possible by the people’s champ, @Ron R 🙌🏻 thanks for sending this our way, sir - it’s some seriously delicious juice. I gave it one smell and thought to myself, “This is a 94/100 wine.” Glad to see my initial (and final) assessment was on par with most of yours.
Intoxicating notes of mulled plums, blackberries and blueberries, all baked together with anise, melted Mexican chocolate, and dried vanilla bean. Beautiful, luscious mouthfeel with a velvety finish. This is a winner. — 4 years ago

Exactly what I expected and exactly what I wanted. Intense and expressive with copious amounts of brooding dark fruits, graphite, anise, eucalyptus, gunpowder, and violet on the nose with juicy plums, blackberries, spices, and cedar on the palate with silky tannins and big structure. So good. — 6 years ago
Coombsville is an exciting AVA within Napa for cool climate Cab. The Farella vineyard shows a more herbaceous side than most others from the valley floor. The nose has eucalyptus, violets, and fresh wild berries. Full bodied, ripe tannins, robust structure. Very well made Napa Cab. — 3 years ago
This is the Farella Vineyard Cab. Deep Ruby to deep purple in color with an explosive nose of blackberries, black cherries, black pepper, and cocoa powder. Very powerful nose. The aromas fill the room. Flavors are a bit tight on this. It is a 2016, so it may open up after a bit of aging. Medium to full bodied. Bone dry. I think this needs a bit of time to develop. — 5 years ago
Delicious, full bodied, and complex. Great flavors of oak without overwhelming vanilla, ripe and firm grapes with tannins to keep things balanced. Herb and smoky notes. Delicious. — 6 years ago
