Bella Union Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2021
The 2021 Far Niente Bella Union Napa Valley Cab combines luscious Oakville estate Cabernet Sauvignon with a sprinkling of Bordeaux varieties from select vineyards nearby (Malbec, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot). The result is a dark, alluring wine with inviting aromas of dark cherry, anise, and spice – with big, lip-smacking dark fruit. There’s some great primary fruit here but with nice tannin structure that will allow for years of aging.

95 Points, Tasting Panel
Fresh and exciting, with ripe black cherry forming a creamy base. Teeth-gripping, tongue-coating tannins soon relax and reveal peppered plum, sweet tobacco, and baking spices. Delicious, with an abundance of heart, the wine saturates the palate with cedar and mocha on the finish.
The Bella Union Cabernet from Far Niente is a crazy good value. It comes in at half the price of its sibling Far Niente and over delivers as a special Saturday night type wine. Under the tutelage of rising star Brooke Bobyak Price, the wines have consistently garnered 95+ points, with this vintage being no different. This is one of the most affordable, most reliable Rutherford Cabernets you’re going to find.
The vineyards that run along Bella Oaks Lane (the road that cuts through the heart of Rutherford) towards the old Bella Union mine, have been sought after for well over a hundred years. Since their founding in the 1880s, these vineyards have been the heart of some of the most phenomenal Napa Cabernets ever made.
They were the secret ingredient in Heitz’s Bella Oaks Cabernet. The vineyards from the old Steckter family property – now Staglin – were the secret sauce in the Beaulieu’s Georges de Latour Private Reserve – not to mention the phenomenal wines of Staglin.
