Sommelier's Note

Indulge in the legacy of Far Niente’s 1986 Cabernet Sauvignon from Oakville, a quintessential representation of the Napa Valley’s magnificent terroir. This vintage displays an alluring deep crimson hue, hinting at the rich complexity that lies within. On the nose, it offers an exquisite bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, dark chocolate, and subtle notes of cedar and vanilla, interlaced with hints of tobacco and forest floor that evoke its age and sophistication. Each swirl in the glass releases layers of spice and earthiness, inviting you to immerse yourself in its opulent essence. On the palate, this wine displays a remarkable balance of power and finesse, showcasing bold tannins gracefully softened by years of maturation. The rich, intense flavors of blackberry compote and cassis are complemented by an elegant oak influence that adds depth and structure to the profile. A velvety texture envelops the mouth, leading to a long, memorable finish that reverberates with notes of mocha and ripe fig, epitomizing the remarkable artistry behind this iconic vintage. Far Niente’s commitment to crafting exceptional wines is palpably evident in every drop, making this Cabernet Sauvignon an exquisite choice for connoisseurs seeking both prestige and pleasure.
