The Winery
Favia
Favia Erickson Winegrowers is a collaboration between Annie Favia and Andy Erickson. Their philosophy is simple: create soulful wines that express the true nature of the vineyards from which they come. Favia focuses on finding unique vineyard sites with soils, climate and aspects ideal for growing exquisite wine grapes, and developing strong relationships with winegrowers to perfect viticultural practices. In the winery, gentle handling, minimal intervention, and strict monitoring of the wine allow their grapes to speak for themselves.
Tasting Notes
- V94
- The 2010 Rompecabezas is a wine of notable concentration, power and depth. A striking wine, the 2010 impresses for its dense, totally primary fruit. The aromatics have yet to fully develop in a full-bodied red that is clearly endowed with superb textural finesse and elegance. With time in the glass hints of sage, rosemary and dark red fruit begin to emerge, but only with great reluctance. The 2010 is 37% Grenache, 33% Mourvedre and 30% Syrah, done with 20% whole clusters and aged in a combination of neutral oak and concrete. Today, it is drop-dead gorgeous.
