If you're looking for a laid back and lovely winery in Napa run by an awesome family that makes killer Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, look no further than Failla. Their basic philosophy is to source great fruit from cooler climate vineyards, preferably close to the ocean, to enhance the bright fruit acidity as well as minerality of their wines. What you get is a a beautifully balanced wine that integrates fruit seamlessly into acidity.
