In the early days of Napa Valley viticulture, three brothers settled in what is now known as Coombsville. Antonio, Lorenzo, and Nicola Carbone were the first Italian immigrants to inhabit this quiet, rolling area east of the city of Napa, cultivating their first crops in 1872. They planted grapes on the hillsides, and on the farm around their homestead, they planted fruits and vegetables in abundance. By 1886, they had constructed at least one residence, as well as a stone cellar that still remains. The property became known as the Antonio Carbone Winery and Italian Gardens.
Annie and Andy consider themselves incredibly lucky to have painstakingly restored the old residences, winery, orchards and gardens, and now call this home for their family and for Favia Wines. Drawing from the same vineyard blocks they’ve worked with for nearly fifteen years, they are honing our craft with each season, and could not be closer to the wines than they are now, living above the barrel cellar.
With a nod to the past, and with an eye toward continuing their story, Favia are incredibly happy to release the second vintage of “Carbone,” a wine that celebrates the history and promise of this property.
Vinous
"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Carbone is another compelling wine from Andy Erickson and Annie Favia's Carbone label. Bright, aromatic and vibrant, the Carbone Cabernet is also a terrific introduction to the vintage. Lifted floral accents and pulsing tannins liven up a core of red/purplish berry fruit."
