Heritage & History

The Farella family's commitment to quality is evident in every aspect of their operation. From meticulously tending the vines to employing thoughtful winemaking practices, they strive to create wines that are both expressive and age-worthy.

Farella Vineyard, located in the esteemed Coombsville appellation of Napa Valley, stands as a testament to family dedication and a deep connection to the land. Founded in 1977, the vineyard began its journey with a vision to craft exceptional wines that reflected the unique terroir of the region.

While the vineyard was established in 1977, the first wines under the Farella Vineyard label were released in 1985, marking the beginning of their legacy as a producer of fine Napa Valley wines.

Terroir & Vineyard

The vineyard's soil composition is a fascinating mosaic of volcanic tufa, red decomposed rock, and ashy deposits. This diverse geological makeup contributes to the complexity and minerality found in Farella's wines, imparting a unique sense of place.

Farella Vineyard benefits from the distinctive characteristics of the Coombsville AVA. This area, nestled in the southeastern part of Napa Valley, experiences a cooler climate than many of its northern neighbors, resulting in wines with vibrant acidity and complex flavor profiles.

The well-drained soils and favorable climate create an ideal environment for cultivating Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Sauvignon Blanc, the varietals that thrive on the Farella estate.

Signature Wines & Winemaking

Farella Vineyard is particularly renowned for its Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. These wines showcase the elegance and structure that can be achieved in Coombsville, with rich fruit flavors, refined tannins, and a lingering finish.

Farella's Sauvignon Blanc is also a notable offering, displaying bright citrus notes, crisp acidity, and a refreshing minerality that reflects the vineyard's unique terroir.

The winemaking philosophy at Farella emphasizes minimal intervention, allowing the natural character of the fruit to shine through. They employ traditional techniques, such as hand-sorting and gentle extraction, to ensure the wines are balanced and expressive.

Visitor Experience

While specific details about public tours and tastings may vary, Farella Vineyard typically offers a personalized experience for wine enthusiasts seeking to learn more about their wines and the Coombsville appellation. Contacting the winery directly is recommended for the most up-to-date information.

Tastings provide an opportunity to sample Farella's signature wines, guided by knowledgeable staff who can share insights into the winemaking process and the nuances of each vintage. It is best to contact them in advance to book an appointment.

Visits often include a tour of the vineyard, allowing guests to witness firsthand the unique terroir that shapes the wines. This provides a deeper understanding of the family's commitment to sustainable viticultural practices.

Legacy & Future

Farella Vineyard stands as a testament to the enduring power of family ownership and a dedication to crafting exceptional wines that reflect the unique character of the Coombsville appellation.

As they look to the future, Farella Vineyard remains committed to preserving the land and upholding their legacy as a producer of world-class Napa Valley wines, ensuring that future generations can enjoy the fruits of their labor.
