More About 2021 Faust The Pact Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon An enchanting manifestation of Coombsville's allure, Faust's The Pact Cabernet Sauvignon captivates with its rich tapestry of concentrated dark fruits, velvety espresso tones, and the quintessential Coombsville minerality. Agustin and Valeria Huneeus, founders of Quintessa, were among the first to plant vineyards in the AVA in 1998 after searching out areas of the Valley that could grow fruit that best expressed the style of wine they were looking to create. Nestled in the southern reaches of Napa Valley, the Coombsville AVA benefits from its proximity to the San Pablo Bay, where cool air and fog converge to nurture fruit characterized by vibrant acidity and robust structure. Faust Wines, renowned for its commitment to showcasing the region's essence, sources its flagship "The Pact" Cabernet from the estate's best vines. The 2021 vintage unveils robust and complex flavors, owing to optimal conditions throughout the growing season. While possessing the structural integrity for graceful aging, this wine has already garnered superior acclaim, receiving an impressive 97-point score from James Suckling, who concluded his review by saying he "can't wait."
