Tasting Notes

The Farella Vineyard 2018 from Realm Cellars is a profound and pure expression of Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon — elegant, mineral, and deeply structured.
It opens with aromas of black cherry, plum, graphite, crushed rock, and violets, interwoven with subtle notes of tobacco, mocha, and earth.

On the palate, it is precise and focused, showing remarkable tension between ripe fruit and freshness. The texture is silky yet firm, with fine-grained tannins framing layers of cassis, blueberry, cocoa, and wet stone.
The wine unfolds with grace and intensity, delivering a long, mineral-driven finish that speaks to Coombsville’s volcanic soils and cooler microclimate.

This is Realm’s most terroir-transparent Cabernet, showcasing finesse and complexity rather than sheer power.
