1994 Far Niente Estate Bottled Cabernet Sauvignon – Classic Oakville Expression

The 1994 Far Niente Estate Bottled Cabernet Sauvignon represents one of Napa Valley’s most enduring expressions of balance and longevity. Sourced from the heart of Oakville, this vintage reflects the estate’s meticulous approach to vineyard management and restrained winemaking style that emphasizes purity over power.

Tasting Notes

The bouquet opens with layers of cassis, graphite, tobacco leaf, and cedar. The palate remains vibrant after decades, offering fine-grained tannins and focused acidity that carry blackcurrant, mocha, and dried herbs through a remarkably persistent finish. Mature yet lively, it illustrates why the 1994 vintage is often celebrated among Napa’s finest years.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

Composed entirely of Cabernet Sauvignon from the estate’s Oakville vineyards, the wine was aged in new French oak barrels for just under two years. The gravelly, well-drained soils and warm microclimate of Oakville provide the concentration and elegance that define Far Niente’s house style. Farming is conducted with sustainable precision, ensuring fruit of exceptional clarity.

Investment & Collectibility

The 1994 vintage is considered one of the standout years of the decade in Napa Valley. With its proven cellaring record and established secondary-market following, this bottling holds consistent appeal for fine wine investors and collectors seeking benchmark California Cabernet.

Vintage Insights & Accolades

Cool nights and a steady, warm growing season produced fruit of outstanding ripeness and balance. Critics consistently note its elegance, structure, and impressive aging trajectory.
