Favia
About Favia
Despite being founded back in 2001 by married couple Annie Favia (Viticultrualist) & Andy Erickson (Winemaker), Favia Winery’s real history started when they purchased what was once the Antonio Carbone estate, one of Napa’s historic plots that was first planted in 1872. Already with mightily impressive careers in wine with Annie being involved in the development of Colgin, Screaming Eagle, and St. Eden, the Favia wines at the hands of this team have been excellent since their inception.
‘Talk about an impressive resume, Annie Favia is married to superstar winemaking consultant Andy Erickson, but she easily stands on her own merits having trained under John Kongsgaard at Newton, worked in David Abreu’s management company for eleven years’ – Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
The Favia philosophy is simple: create soulful wines that express the true nature of the vineyards from which they come. The wines focus on two varietals that of course thrive in the Napa Valley; Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
‘Andy Erickson and Annie Favia recently acquired a historic property in Coombsville that was first planted in 1872 by the Carbone family. Erickson and Favia painstakingly refurbished the old, historic cellar, which is now home to the Favia wines. The property itself harkens back a time in Napa Valley's history when grapes were farmed alongside other crops. As for the wines, they are superb. Favia sources from top sites in Coombsville and Oakville for these sumptuous, impeccably balanced wines.’ – Antonio Galloni, Vinous

Decanter (100)A new addition to the Place de Bordeaux this year - the eponymous project of husband and wife duo; viticulturist Annie Favia and winemaker Andy Erickson. A beautifully scented nose full of rose and violet touches, the Cabernet Franc nuances leap from the glass - fresh and minty, full of herbal sun-kissed ripe fruit but pristinely delivered. Smooth and driving on the palate, crunchy, crisp flavours give a real bite to the palate - red berries, blackcurrants and raisins, all nicely integrated and balanced. This doesn't feel super worked and polished, instead it gives crystalline iron-minerality, lifted acidity and fragrance throughout - real signatures of the terroir and the minimal interventionist winemaking style - the grapes speak more than the winemaking. I just love the sense of wildness, a smoked touch with blue fruits, Asian spices and slightly angular tannins but with ripe fruit giving the body and cool acidity giving the freshness. A stunning wine and welcome addition to the Place. Ageing in French oak barrels (50% new). |

Vinous (98)The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville is a blend mostly from Meteor. A stunning wine, the 2019 possesses off the charts richness and tremendous depth that just builds with time in the glass. Inky dark fruit, plum, spice, licorice, menthol and crushed berries saturate the palate. The 2019 is one of the very finest wines I have ever tasted from Andy Erickson and Annie Favia. Don't miss it. |
