More About 2018 Farella Coombsville NAPA VALLEY Merlot Tom Farella is a luminary in the world of winemaking. With decades of farming expertise honed in Burgundy and Oregon, his passion for wine is evident in every bottle crafted from Coombsville's coveted terroir. Recognizing the unparalleled quality of Tom's grapes, Realm embarked on a journey with Farella Vineyard decades ago, producing a single-vineyard wine that has consistently garnered high acclaim. Nestled on a hillside planted in 1979, Farella's vineyard benefits from the cooling influence of the nearby San Pablo Bay, resulting in a Right Bank Bordeaux-style Merlot distinguished by supple tannins and vibrant acidity. Enter the 2018 vintage – a pinnacle of concentration, power, and precision, yet retaining the elegant finesse that has defined Farella wines for over 42 years. Tom's namesake wine is a testament to his dedication, offering a remarkable blend of quality, authenticity, and balance that exceeds expectations at its price point.
