"A big, full-throttle wine, Favia's 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon hits the palate with massive richness and weight. Mocha, chocolate, black fruit and sweet spices build effortlessly to the rich, ample finish. The style is distinctly sweet and ripe. Meteor and Oakville Ranch are the fruit sources." -Vinous

"Their 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon, is extraordinary as well. With an opaque dark purple/bluish tint, the wine offers up crème de cassis, blueberry liqueur, camphor, and again, an almost floral note that makes the aromatics to die for. The flavors don’t disappoint either. This is a full-bodied, seamlessly constructed, beautifully textured, stunning wine with a 40- to 45-second finish as well as spectacular texture and length. This is another great wine that is flirting with perfection." -Robert Parker

"Dense and expansive, complex and engaging, with a mix of dark berry, gravelly earth, cedar, tobacco and sage flavors, this features a core of dark berry fruit that remains impressively persistent, ending with an aftertaste of melted black licorice and mocha."
